I don’t think it is possible. The Beotime uses the ir commands like a Beo 4. The M5 receives Bluetooth commands such as from an Essence Remote or BeoRemote 1 bluetooth.

There's no easy way to do this. If you are good with software people have managed to make B&O IR decoders on Arduino and other platforms. It should be possible to write code that receives the IR codes and converts them to BlueTooth commands on an Arduino or RaspberryPi.

A lovely idea. IR control (Beotime, Beo 4...) for the newer Bang & Olufsen Bluetooth products.
You would need an infrared to bluetooth converter.
Those things were / are available e.g. from Logitech and RE-BL (there's a PUC from B&O for the RE-BL, too) to control the Sony Playstation 3.
1.) RE-BL: link (only PS3 as far as I know)
2.) ir to Bluetooth for Playstation 4: link
But the question is if it is pairable to a B&O Bluetooth speaker and how it reacts.
Isn't there an alarm function in the M5? I know there is in the M3.
This is not the answer to your question, but it may solve your problem..
