Now, if, for any reason, after gear retraction, heat continues to built up to a certain value, would you have a checklist requesting to select gear down again ?
Yes. On the classic the F/E will do a panel scan some time after TO which includes the brake temps, depending on the temp you may go into the alternate procedures and select the gear down to bring the temp within the normal range.
On glass A/C an EICAS/ECAM message would lead you to the QRH or procedure to put the gear down.

I don't think the A330/340 have wheel well fire detection, which is why they have the 300C limitation.
