Bit of a wild idea, I haven’t used SSH tunnels in years, so a bit fuzzy on the details:
Can you create an SSH tunnel to the new machine from the VM, then pipe that to an SSH connection from a machine that
doeshave enough space to dump?
And then vice versa to the new machine to restore? (Unless access to that one is easier of course)
