In theory, no, no changes. Would kind of defeat the purpose for AA if you could just pay the fare difference and then have a changeable fare. I think if you call to upfare within 24 hours you'll have better luck, but generally I'd guess that YMMV.
That said, most employers, particularly those using corporate travel agents/platforms, have blocked BE fares from even showing, because of the non-changeability.
