Connecting at DXB BA to EK with checked bags

Posted a similar thread on the Middle East forum and no answers.

Arrive LHR-DXB on BA at 2345 and have booked an EK DXB-BAH flight at 0215. Separate tickets, separate PNR and will have a checked bag. Is 2 1/2 hours possible to reclaim the checked bag and transfer from T1 to T3? I've heard reports that it may be possible for the airport service company to reclaim my bag and recheck it on the EK flight without me having to clear immigration and reclaim the bag myself but I've never seen that anywhere else in the world. And of course the kicker that doesn't help timewise is I'm in a wheelchair…

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks
