My garage is cinder block. I'm installing two outdoor motion sensor decorated

So, *no* Jbox on which to hang the fixture? How do you plan on
connecting (wiring) the fixture to the ROMEX conductors? Where
do you expect the service loop to be stored -- tucked inside the
block wall??

drilling a hole through the block and running Romex through to
the inside of the garage, which will then continue the run into the breaker

What's on the *inside* of the block wall? Will you just have a
piece of ROMEX poking out a hole, draped along the wall/through the
ceiling to the loadcenter?

panel. When running the Romex through the cinder block from the fixture on the
outside to the inside, I am planning to insert a piece of conduit or PVC in the
drilled hole, then running Romex through it. Is this the best option to run the
wire to panel?

Define "best". : Do you care about Code or just want to get the lights
lit? :

Here, I install boxes *in* the block so there is a place for the
wires to terminate *and* for the fixture to attach. Just like you'd
encounter *in* an interior wall...
