Though it seems every answer is equally valid they might benefit from some organisation:

Yeah! Nowadays it is possible to withdrawal dollars in Kenya ATMs, You can get these services from I&M bank at Gigiri near WarWick building, several KCB ATMS such as two in Kencom but you need to ask the soldier there to show you, 1 in Kipande house, 1 in Sarit Centre, 3 ATMS in the JKIA and 1 in TRM.

There is a KCB ATM at TRM 2nd flour adjacent to KCB Bank in the mall where you can withdraw USD

There is a USD atm at the KCB Kipandi House (across the road from the post office) but when I went there on 2/8/15 it was out of order. It is the one on a the far right as you enter (ones with USD are not labelled). I cannot confirm the one at Anniversary towers as I went there on a Sunday and could not get access to the ATMS. I was told by locals there we one at kencom. I could not see one providing USD when I went there. I only checked the atms on the northern side though. There may still be something there as it is the main office for KCB.

I ended up being able to get 1000 USD from the KCB atm at Karen Shopping centre. It is the one on the right. This is the closes atm for all those starting overland tours from Karen Camp. I heard that other people could only get 300 USD from this one so it may depend on your own bank.

Also the KCB at Moyale does not give USD

So this has been an issue for quite a while. Fortunately here is a local who withdraws USDs from local ATM every week.
FYI I use a Bank of America ATM

KCB University way ATM @ Anniversary towers (1 machine)
KCB Kipande House ATM (1 machine)
KCB Kencom ATM (2 machines)

Bienividos Kenya!

Yes, I have successfully withdrawn USD from KCB in Nairobi a couple of times.

There is rumor that there is at least one ATM with an USD cash option:

I found one KCB ATM (across from main post office in Nairobi) which gives you the choice to withdraw in KSH or US dollars.
