But, if you still want to do it, maybe you could just place the
fire bowl on
top of a layer of landscape pavers.......


Yep. My recommendation also. They're cheap and you can buy them
everywhere.

I have considered this approach, but would they just become hot enough
themselves to transfer the heat to the deck?


Well, let's see now...

Iron melts at 1536 C. Iron can be smelted with wood fires (OK, they add
some air; you never have a breeze?). Lava runs 700 C - 1200 C. I've
watched many trees burst into flame - damn near explode - when overrun with
lava.

Yep, I think pavers could catch your deck on fire.
