Depends on the airline and their reservation system.

I've certainly done that on a recent trip (trip report here), where I had my TG*G status entered in for status purposes, whilst accruing to A3. Appeared correctly on the boarding pass, with my TG*G status printing out alongside my A3 accrual. All miles accrued properly to A3 (though YMMV), and I'm now A3*G as well.

If talking to a reasonably competent agent, ask them to enter in your UA number in the FQTS (Frequent Traveller Status) field, and your A3 number in the FQTV (Frequent Traveller) field.
