Well, you can use Skywards miles for FlyDubai through their partnership. But (assuming there are flights during that period), I suspect that award seats will be difficult or impossible to get. No airline will make award seats available when they can sell them for cash at (possibly inflated) cash prices.
Whatever way (different routes / airlines) you try is, my suspicion is that seats to / from DOH during the World Cup will be (very) expensive. It's referred to as 'supply and demand'.....
