transiting through DXB

I have a 16 hour layover arriving around 11PM. Can I go to the lounge without clearing security, take a rest, and then clear security and exit the airport?

You'll have to clear transit security to get into the departures area. However, once you've been to the lounge, you'll need to get back into the arrivals stream by going the wrong way through transit security (may sure you make a mental note of where it is). You'll then clear immigration as if you'd just arrived.
