Popis: We present new Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) results obtained from spatially resolved CO $J$=2-1 line ($0.4''$ resolution) and 870 $\mu$m continuum ($0.2''$ resolution) observations of cluster galaxies in XMMXCS J2215.9-1738 at $z=1.46$. Our sample comprises 17 galaxies within $\sim0.5$ Mpc ($0.6R_{200}$) of the cluster center, all of which have previously been detected in the CO $J$=2-1 line at a lower resolution. The effective radii of both the CO $J$=2-1 line and 870 $\mu$m dust continuum emissions are robustly measured for nine galaxies by modeling the visibilities. We find that the CO $J$=2-1 line emission in all of the nine galaxies is more extended than the dust continuum emission by a factor of $2.8\pm1.4$. We investigate the spatially resolved Kennicutt-Schmidt (KS) relation in two regions within the interstellar medium of the galaxies. The relation for our sample reveals that the central region ($0
