I highly doubt it. The bandits have a survival of the fittest system going. If their current leader leaves them or shows weakness, then no doubt that leader is replaced. The bandits are exactly that: bandits. They kill, they pillage, they rape, they kidnap and do all sorts of horrible things and, if Raven is to be believed, they don't care about protecting other people. Certainly not against a threat like Samen.

And even if they did help...Aside from being cannon fodder, what could they do? With the exception of Raven and Vernal (whom is deceased), the bandits seem to be standard mooks who talk big, but are beaten easily by a first year student. It's rather that the bandits only look for themselves and would not care if innocents or other people who are not one of theirs would die, plus they are too cowardly (their Survival of the fittest ideology is just BS to make them feel better at robbing and Killing people weaker than them) and as you say too weak to make a difference.
