If you mean melonDS local multiplayer:
1st - Open 2 windows.
2nd - Go to config > wifi settings on the first window and enable Bind socket to any address.
3rd - on the every other window, enable mac randomisation and enable Bind socket to any address too.
Now local multiplayer should work, keep in mind that some games still not work.
4th - keep in mind that this process will need to be repeated every time you close all of melonDS instances, it will always save the configuration of the last window closed.

Make sure you're using melonDS latest version. If it doesn't work try also disabling frame limiter/audio sync.

Bind socket to any address isn't necessary from my experience.

Don't need it, the Wimmfi is related to WFC connections.
Here, you are going to use Local Multiplayer, it is a different feature.

Would this work for poketransfer as well?

Yes, already did it before. Any local communication reliant feature might work (although it's not assured). You might have to try a few times tho.

Edit: turning off audio syncing fixed it
