If it is an AA issued ticket then you cannot use avios to upgrade (you could use aadvantage miles to upgrade if booked in these classes: C, J, D or R on British Airways).

If it is a BA issued ticket with an AA flight then you can use avios to upgrade these fare classes: J, C, D, W, Y, B. Since your ticket is I class you could not use avios to upgrade the AA flight.

If it is a BA issued ticket with BA flights then you could use avios to upgrade.
