Yes it does -- one of the few positive things about direct flights (through flights with a stop). I have used a single BXP1 on one of these through flights PBI-CLT-MCI.
C must be available on the whole flight, and I believe you need to be assigned to the same seat on both segments to process the upgrade, so it will usually be the bulkhead. After you clear into C, you can move to different seats by asking the agent to break the PNR.
