Are you wanting them to tag the bag SEA-ORD-SEA-ANC? I had a weird situation (not that I minded because I was getting more miles) that required a double connection in one airport. The Alaska agent had a really tough time getting it to work, and in the end tagged them without the double connection.

I would recommend getting there early, as it took quite a while for me to get down. Alternatively, maybe they would just let you check your bags in really early for the SEA-ANC flight with your unique situation.

Or if I'm reading it wrong, and you want to check them in at ORD all the way to ANC, yeah they should be able to do that.
