There have been reports of people doing it successfully. But be aware that according to Companion Voucher T&Cs:
Members must remain eligible for this promotion at the time of travel. BA and Amex reserve the right to refuse to issue or honour any Companion Voucher in the event that the Member is in breach of the terms of the British Airways American Express Card or the BA Executive Club Membership.
Amex warn that if you close a BA Amex account, any booking made using a voucher earned through that account may not be honoured. There is at least a theoretical risk that a booking made with a voucher could be invalid if the voucher is subsequently "un-earned". In practice there would probably be no problem but you would be on thin ice if BA or Amex decided to make an issue of it.
