Can a partially-flown Oneworld ticket be exchanged for a different Oneworld ticket?

You can change your ticket to to a higher-tiered or higher class ticket at any time. This is not a refund, it is a change.
...If the ticket is partially flown, then you pay the fare difference as it was on the day the ticket was issued.
Thanks very much for your responses Calchas.
I appreciate that I can upgrade my LONE3 to a DONE3, starting where I am, but at October prices.

My question in this case was "Should I be able to cancel an October-purchased partially flown LONE3 ex-CAI and purchase from the same airline a new DONE3 ex-CAI using the proceeds as part payment and then return to CAI to start the new DONE3?"

Can proceeds from cancelling a ticket be transferred by a TA to a new higher-priced ticket purchase? or would I have to wait for the refund to be processed to have access to that money?

Thanks.
