Not sure about how it is handled closer to departure, but I have an upcoming reservation with myself (Plat Pro) and spouse (Plat), and were not able to select Premium Class seats even for myself before the 72 hour window. I asked AS to split the PNR and I was immediately moved to Premium Class, and the reservation now indicates that I am waitlisted for a F upgrade.

Hold times at AS may be a bit long, so I'd suggest using the text message chat function.
