Moving succulents indoor and under lighting

Hello everyone!

Here in Vancouver it's starting to get colder and colder outside so I will be moving my cacti and succulents indoor before first frost.

Now I'm pretty sure all the cacti will do fine inside, however there are some succulents labeled as "summer dormant" and I'm not sure what I should do when they are moved inside.

Here's the list:

Aloe brevifolia
Argyroderma delaetii
Haworthia cuspidata
H. pygmaea
H. venosa ssp. tessellata
Lithops
Pleiospilos nelii

The shelf they will be on is illuminated by high-output T5s. The brightness is 10000 - 25000 lux(1000 -2500 foot-candles) and temperature ranges from 24 to 28C.

Should I water them in this environment? Will this mess up their seasonal clocks when I move them outside when spring comes? Any help is appreciated, thanks!
