I used miles for my daughters ticket and her fare shows up as XN. Is there any way to pay for an upgrade for her into 1st class as well? I would not mind spending the money for her as well if there was a way for both of us to be in 1st. (The main reason I am thinking about the upgrade for myself is for the 8000 or so extra PQM that I would get buy doing 1st class as opposed to W).
No. You'll have to get her a F award, which will be tough on that route if you're locked into specific dates (like already holding a paid ticket).

"The main reason I am thinking about the upgrade for myself is for the 8000 or so extra PQM that I would get buy doing 1st class" - UA loves your mindset.
