The two agents were saying the same thing, it is a matter how you ask the guestion.

There are many things an elites can do for an off-PNR companion -- including E+ , priority boarding with you, CPU waitlist, ...access if on the same flight. So that answer is YES
And of course you can use your miles to upgrade a paid ticket even if not traveling together.

What you can not do is add a companion to your PNR. So the answer is NO,
Combine reservations into one PNR? Can not be done. "Linking" PNRs, no benefit.
