This might be a way to get around the problem with the Emirates website and Canadian credit cards.
If all flights are on EK then yes, 100% (and also if most segments are on EK with interline connections such as BOM-DXB-JFK on EK and JFK-BOS on AA).

Expedia.com's receipt will show you the EK ticket number as well an EK PNR that you can use to access MMB.
