Yes, you can pay to upgrade to PY for both.

Thank you both,

Does JAL offer discounted upgrades similar to AA's upgrade offers at check-in?

My girlfriend and I are starting to plan a trip to TYO for next winter and I'd really like to take JAL out there. I have enough miles for a RT Y seat and we'd split the cost of her Y seat. Given that it'll likely be our longest trip of the year, I'm willing to pay up to PY but I'd like to do that as cheaply as possible. We ran into an issue on a flight recently where I was offered a buy-up at check-in and she was not because we were not on the same PNR. That's why I asked about it.
