Not sure if there are any airports (that have an Admirals lounge) where AA share a terminal with other carriers, but the other scenario is holding a BP for another airline - like one must to access QF intl J lounges.
In any event I can't think of too many airlines that have anytime lounge access as a tier benefit. SQ used to for PPS's (travelling on another airline) but dropped it some time ago.
