2 separate tickets - Can boarding pass of 2nd trip be issued with the first trip's?
Transiting with 2 different PNRs. No checked in luggage. I understand in normal circumstance, if you have 2 separate PNRs, you are not considered a fly through passenger, thus having to clear immigration and check in at the check-in desk just like someone who is coming to the airport from within the city. And if you are transiting on a single PNR then you are considered a fly through passenger. My question is, what if you came in with a boarding pass (not online check in) to your 2nd destination. Can a boarding pass be issued for 2 different PNRs at the firs airport?

Ticket 1: HNL (Hawaii, USA) > KLIA (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia)
Ticket 2: KLIA > DMK (Bangkok, Thailand)
The flight to bangkok is 24h later (No problem. I can stay at the airport, catch up on some work on my computer). Online you can check in 14 days in advance. Airline is airasia. Want to get a boarding pass at the first airport instead of online in order to get the document-check out of the way so i can be that much closer to being treated like a legitimate fly through passenger. Goal is not to go through immigration because a visa in advances is required.

You say both flights are on AirAsia.
Just note that the HNL-KUL flight is operated by AirAsiaX (D7), whereas KUL-DMK could be operated by either Air Asia (AK) or Thai Air Asia (FD).
You'd need to check which terminal the D7 flights arrives into, and which terminal the AK/FD flight departs from. If they are the not the same, then you'll need to check what the inter-terminal processes are and whether that might involve having to pass immigration etc.
Others here may know, or you might try asking a specific question on the MH board.
Edited to add:
If you arrive at KLIA and depart KLIA2, then it seems you will need to go through immigration:

If you are on 2 separate reservations, and require a visa for Malaysia, there is a very good chance you will not be permitted to board the first flight in HNL without a visa.
Usually the LCCs do not have facilities in the transit area, and you would have to check-in at the landside counter, which means clearing immigration.
I suggest you check very clearly with your airlines before purchasing these tickets.

Normally, it's for fly through passengers - meaning 1 pnr. Technically though, the pnr number would be the only thing that would be different between a transit passenger on 1 pnr and one who is on the same journey but with 2 pnrs.
This is for DMK, but should be a similar layout at KLIA2.

see on the link you provided:
No immigration clearance in Malaysia and exemption of airport tax at transit hub.
Note: Applicable only for international transfers with a maximum stop-over of 6-hours in Malaysia. Click here for more details.
You are looking for 24 hours.

To the OP, you asked a question if what your were planning to do was possible.
To sum up, you have been told it is not possible.
Instead of arguing with us, or defending yourself, I suggest you just prepare for the worst case scenario:.
what you will do if denied boarding at HNL?
