We wouldn't really be referencing their narratives. We would never say "Oh by the way, the Doctor met a Batman once." However, the importance of how the universes are set up in the franchise is important enough from an out-of-universe setting that we can use it to justify authorial intent. Furthermore I don't see a problem with us saying something as small as the fact that the Daleks aren't from the Batman universe. That's just about as far as we'd stretch it by this point.

How Doctor Who is treated in Lego Dimensions is going to be how it's most likely going to be treated for every appearance in the franchise, is the point. And saying something as simple as that there is a multi-verse in the LEGO universe isn't really against policy.
