Does "sudo dnf remove kernel*-3.18.3*" work for you?
>From the DNF's persepective (http://dnf.readthedocs.org/en/latest/command_ref.html#specifying-packages), your specification is in the form "name" (because of the missing dash) and there is no package with a name matching "kernel*3.18.3*". Also in the second query, it is assumed that the name must match "kernel*3.18.3".
TBH, I don't know whether we should extend the forms of package specifications to support your case. The current behaviour seems to be safer to me. I mean, if we improve it, user wouldn't be able to query just package names as easily as now.

Days ago when I tried to install/remove 7000+ packages from half-completed downloading in Neal's way, it didn't work at all.
But without asterisk in the command, things could be harder once there are numerous RPMs being taken.
