You cannot append <?php // code here ?> to an already rendered webpage using JavaScript and expect PHP to parse it. PHP parses the page while it is being handled by the webserver attending to the request. If you want JavaScript (client-side) to interact with something PHP generates from a Database (server-side), you need to look into AJAX.
