Can I purchase an economy ticket with a receipt to submit to employer, and then immediately pay the fare difference to upgrade it to business on a separate receipt?

That will depend on where your ticket is purchased and how. If its usually done through a corporate travel agency, then you have to liase with that agency to do what you want. If its done as a full Y ticket, then it shouldn't be any problem. If there are J tickets cheaper than a full Y ticket, then that's something you must check and reason with your employer.
If your company allows you to do your ticket yourself, then yes you can do the above. It may be best for you to find a local travel agent to do the above. Submit an invoice for economy when you pay the difference for J.
