I've done two separate tickets, LAX-NRT on ANA then NRT-TPE on EVA, ANA was happy to check all the way through. They are both on Star Alliance, but according to this post NH has an interline agreement with JAL, so if that's the case, you should have no problem booking all way through as long as the layover is reasonable (ie less than 24 hours iirc).
