At JFK you won't have to collect bags. If you opt to go over to T4 to the lounge there, you will have to go back through security when you get back to T8.
For a 3.5 hour break I would not change JFK terminals just to visit a lounge. You can get a Admiral's Club one-day pass for $50. This would allow you to use the AC in both MIA and JFK.
