Is it feasible to expect to use 2 BXP1 certs on these trans-con flights for next April?
No, but they will release them closer to flight date if the load is light. You'd get waitlisted and hold your breath until the gate when other members, maybe with higher status, are vying for points+$$ and SWU upgrades. Best option is to pick mid week days, early morning flights for your best chance.
