If you really want AWD, then surely converting the gearbox to run a driveshaft forward to a front differential would be easier and lighter than running two motors. Think of the horrific understeer with a motor up front, and the ugly carbuncle you'd need to cover a front engine.
How would you manage the front suspension arrangement? Torsion bars would be out of the question, you might need to look at installing golf struts or double wishbones.
If I were you and trying to AWD a bug I would forget about the front engine idea and work on a transmission/differential arrangement.
