Yes. from lowly GLD to EXP, no limit.
Miles simply stop to post after limit is hit.
If you started the card as non-elite, it wouldn't help if you qualified mid-year - Neither Citi nor AA would budge to lift the cap for that particular card. People tried to argue with Citi/AA and started new threads on said subj - never read any positive feedback from the OPs and threads just died.
