I don't think the dementors have any lasting loyalty to anyone. The
problem would be getting Voldemort into a helpless state and making
him momentarily happy so the dementors would want to suck the
happiness out. But since Harry is the only one who can kill LV, I
don't know how that could be the answer. "Brother" wands aside, JKR
surely won't have her 17-year-old hero perform an illegal curse (AK),
which would require him to be sentenced to Azkaban even if it's used
in self-defense. (I could see Peter Pettigrew trying to kill
Voldemort, but we know it wouldn't work because it's Harry who has to
destroy him.) Maybe Voldemort will try to kill someone (Snape?) with
the Avada Kedavra and Harry will cause the curse to backfire. That's
the best I can come up with at the moment.
