Noob question on seed stratifying (apple, pear) (hexbear.net)

I was gifted a good sized box of small unripe apples and pears that would only be useful for a small amount of jam or maybe candied.

I'm lazy and I didn't exactly feel like processing them so I set them out back, and it is cold enough now that they don't seem to be ripening / rotting.

Question is - If I leave them in the box over winter and they freeze and thaw - will that make the seeds viable do you think? Or is it necessary to take the seeds out of the fruit for some reason? There are so many that I don't really need to worry about a few being duds. I don't even know where I'd plant them but I'd like to get some use out of the seeds for fun.
