I had a flight a few years ago from London to Sri Lanka via Mumbai.
At Mumbai I asked airport officials to help me transfer my bag for me because I didn't have a visa for India. This didn't seem to be a problem and they managed to do it without me having to leave the transfer area.
I'd suggest you contact the transfer airport to see if they are able to give you a definitive answer.

Air Asia and Malindo Air do not have an interlining agreement, so its probable that you may have to go to the baggage hall in Kuala Lumpur, collect your baggage and recheck it.
The following advice is available on the KLIA airport website:
Kindly proceed through the Arrival Immigration check-point, collect your luggage (if any) and clear through Customs before checking-in at the respective terminal for your connecting flight. Passengers are reminded to ensure that they have the necessary valid travel documents (passport, Visa, etc.) to clear through the Arrival Immigration check-point into Malaysia.

It looks like you will need to clear immigration and customs in order to check your baggage with Malindo Air, as I cannot find any information on an airside baggage drop facility.
Its always worth asking the Air Asia staff member when you check your baggage in in Manila, as they may be able to interline it anyway...

How can I get my checked in baggage at B (Kuala Lumpur)?
Your first flight from Manila to Kuala Lumpur is through Air Asia which lands at KLIA2. Your second flight from Kuala Lumpur to Kathmandu is through Malindo Air which departs from Main Klia (Kuala Lumpur International Airport) which is a separate terminal and you definitely need to clear customs and immigration at KLIA2. Remember KLIA and KLIA2 are separate terminal and allow extra time in order to move from KLIA2 to KLIA main terminal.
Therefore, you need to check-in your luggage first at Manila airport and again at KLIA Malindo Air counter.
Do I need a visa of B just to get my checked in baggage?
Yes, as a Nepalese National you need a visa if you are planning to enter Malaysia. However there is an exception to leave the transit area when in transit between Main Terminal and KLIA2 if the connecting flight is operated by Malaysia Airlines (MH) or Air Asia (AK).
