I just booked a ticket for myself going IAH-EWR with miles and my AMEX. I am not on the list. I'm speculating that one would have to use their PP Card for this to be automated. We'll see at the airport (I'm more concerned with my inbound, but there are no seats left on the flight that I want.)
No, you don't have to use the Chase card to book the reward ticket. I have the Chase OnePlus card, and I booked my last reward flight using my Citi ThankYou Premier card. My ORD-EWR segment was EUAed four days out, I did not have to call or do anything, the Elite Upgrade Notificaton email came in automatically.
