Short answer, yes. You've got to make your case, but they will comp. I got plat based on my history and plans. It worked (from their point of view) --- 80+ nights already this year.
Call the service center at SLC --- they'll either do it over the phone or ask you to fax/mail in the documentation. You existing plat/diamond status will go a long way.
Good luck --- should be a slam-dunk.
