If there were a small number of sites where the gas was emitted, akin to the way rivers tend to combine into one larger river, then the idea would be good. The problem is that the emissions are happening over hundreds of thousands of square miles. Putting a dome over all of it to capture the gas is not possible.

Watch the NOVA show, they showed it bubbling fairly vigorously out of a lake. They speculated it was coming from a large reservoir 500 feet below the permafrost.
