I think you need something else entirely.  If the two devices are within centimeters of each other surely you can use your eyes to measure the distance.

Are you trying to "bump" them?

Interesting aside, while most people assume bump is using BT (or at least, I and my coworkers did), it's using plain old internet.

But for the question at hand, why do you need to know the distance that accurately?  (This isn't meant as an insult, it's a serious question, and I could envision reasons such as hacking the phone for a hobby project.  In which case you might be better off using some dedicated hardware to do the measuring and then connecting it to the device using bluetooth.)
