They'll do it, in theory, but as they get used to you, you won't be viewed as a threat so much.... so the longer you've had her, the less likely she is to do it. That's the same reason all the ball python owners out there rarely see their snakes ball up like the name suggests.

Armadillo lizards, unlike some lizards, don't display tail autonomy, so no, they won't lose their tail...but it's still not comfortable for them to be grabbed by it. By the way, they can pack a strong enough bite to break their own jaw, so watch your fingers.

The Jones Armadillo Lizard is also known as the Armadillo Girdled Lizard, the Armadillo Lizard or the African Armadillo Lizard. They are relatively docile, shy lizards that are native to Africa.

An insectivorous animal, the Jones Armadillo Lizard feeds primarily on insects that inhabit its home region in Africa. They are unique among lizards in that they live in social groups. These groups consist of between two and thirty lizards. The smaller groups, usually those containing fewer than nine lizards, usually only have one mature male. The more populated groups often have more than one male. Some lizards, usually males, do not live in groups. The Jones Armadillo Lizard is a very shy animal and retreats into cracks when threatened. If there is no rock available to hide in or under, the Jones Armadillo Lizard will roll into a ball biting its tail.

I am not sure, but I think that they can. I armadillos can, than why can't armadillo lizards? They are probably the same except they have so differences.
