I have nematodes in the fridge and plan to spray them soon. Would it be bad to apply molasses in the same area shortly before or after the nematodes?

Assuming you're talking about beneficial nematodes, I'm not aware that they are affected by molasses like the root knot nematodes are.

Beneficial nematodes should be sprayed out as soon as practical. They will only last a couple weeks in the fridge.

Thanks for the info! The folks I got the nematodes from only said that the soil should be moist before applying. Guess I better turn those sprinklers on and get ready to put them out there!
