Looking at the description of services on emirates.com, they are not claiming that they are flat
Flat bed luxury with integrated passenger seat control in First Class,
deeply reclining comfort in Business Class and
room to relax in Economy.
Only 1st class is listed as having flat beds, business gets the delight of deeply reclining comfort
Personally, I would look at changing to EK432 which is an hour earlier, if wanting to travel overnight or overnighting in Dubai and taking EK404 rather than take the flight with deeply reclining comfort and the old ICE
Looking at the NCL-DXB schedule, it is a better connection to EK432 as well
