You can only obtain it in Dubai.

From the instructions.

 

Comments: Not available by mail. Post recommends that consular officers waive the general requirement to obtain police certificates unless the applicant lives in the UAE.

From the post above, you will not need one. However, be prepare for a possible long AP after the interview.

Three people and the Department of State website say you don't.

 

You can go to Dubai and get one if you want.

Correct, but maybe not all in just that language.  Just going to take a minute to encourage any reader to assure the US Citizen or another native English speaker with good language skills be taking the lead in managing their visa process or the process for their foreign spouse.  When language skills are insufficient, instructions get misunderstood.  I posted the relevant section of the instructions, but if a person doesn't understand the meaning of "waived" within the context of the sentence, then their language skills are insufficient to effectively follow many other instructions as well.  

 

Further, when the US Citizen spouse is not involved enough to take the lead on these matters, it indicates some other potential red flags are present.
