Is it possible: 1 PNR with 1 awrd+1 paid leg non Oneworld

Is it possible to have e.g.:
Single PNR that contains 1 award return ticket on Oneworld and 1 paid ticket on a non-alliance flight to catch the Oneworld flight back?
I need to go USA to Europe roundtrip (any connections without sleep over):
USA-European hub-Europe endpoint - all on OneWorld. There is no direct Oneworld flights to the endpoint.
But the return in one day is not possible because there is no way to get out of the endpoint city on Oneworld flight to catch any connection to USA on Oneworld.
In fact, after being spoiled in Europe access in StarAlliance - the Oneworld really is bad beyond belief. And yes- Air Berlin sucks on all counts, and so does Iberia.
So the only solution is BA or AA. And we all know how LHR works and I cannot wait for Brexit to complete the misery.
The protection of interlining, baggage allowance and interruptions is obviously critical.
Any hope there of how to do it right.
