Right now it seems that you can do cash upgrades at check-in on a space-available basis and get miles for them. I think this is possibly intentional by Alaska, though some people have considered it a loophole.

Can anyone clarify that MVP/G/75K members do not get upgraded on award tickets with their Mileage Plan #, even if issued by BA?
No complimentary upgrades on award tickets. You can do a paid upgrade at check in if space is available.
