You can transfer old SWUs or GUCs/RUCs to a single companion traveling with you, officially on the same PNR but I don't think that was always enforced.

AFAIK the rule for any sort of companion upgrade has always been that neither the elite nor the companion can be flying on an award ticket or using pay with miles. Moreover, SWUs and GUCs/RUCs were never allowed to be applied to award tickets.
