Not 100% sure but they should check it through with any IATA carriers
except the ones that explicitely prohibit it (such as BD on split tickets) or
where government regulations ban it.
I had US-LHR-EU connections in split tickets several times (on BA,LX, and
LH) and it never was an issue in either direction.
Do not see why they would not do it for TK either.
