I really only need the AA EQM/EQD for one leg of a BA roundtrip to USA to give me the EQM needed for award.

Thanks!
It can indeed be done successfully, but we do have a few reports that occasionally the flights were all credited to AA even though a FFN change was requested. Perhaps verifying or requesting at the gate (arriving early enough it won't be difficult) would help.
