I guess, this is possible?

Also what are my chances to call BA and ask them to apply the double Avios directly as i'm going to cancel the flights and rebook anyway?
You're probably safer to rebook and cancel than just ringing up and arguing it. Even if the agent does agree, there's no guarantee the IT will work that way. If the flights are still available at the same price, you have nothing to lose by making a duplicate booking and cancelling the first one.
