Wouldn't the Borg transport some of their drones onto the death star and start assimilating the stormtroopers and crew from the inside before their cube got smashed?

I think it really comes down to who strikes first. Both sides have preemptive abilities that would bag them a quick victory if the other side is oblivious.

nuance has no place in nerd discussion, all fights are determined purely by 'combat stats' as defined by ad hoc online nerd arguments based on specious examples of deus ex machina from the combatants respective canons

Depends on if they can transport through start wars shields or not

Whether or not the Borg can beam through shields is as consistent in lore we whether or not transporters work at warp speed.

Yes, but if they assimilate any storm troopers, the borg won't be able to hit the broad side of a barn.
