In 8th place out of 52 remaining in the 350 player cap. Call and risk tournament life or fold?

PokerStars - 350/700 Ante 85 NL - Holdem - 9 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3

BTN: 36,704 (52.4 bb)
SB: 22,303 (31.9 bb)
BB: 25,562 (36.5 bb)
UTG: 13,620 (19.5 bb)
UTG+1: 15,731 (22.5 bb)
MP: 29,045 (41.5 bb)
Hero (MP+1): 33,444 (47.8 bb)
MP+2: 13,490 (19.3 bb)
CO: 8,734 (12.5 bb)

9 players post ante of 85, SB posts 350, BB posts 700

Pre Flop: (pot: 1,815) Hero has Q

UTG calls 700, 2 folds, Hero raises to 2,100, 2 folds, BTN raises to 36,619 and is all-in, 3 folds, Hero...

Yeah easy call. If you're worried about KK+, don't be. I think it's very rare to see someone shove KK+ 48BB effective, they really should be 3betting for value here if they have KK+. I think you're going to see JJ-88 a lot more and the occasional AK.
