In this case, can a OneWorld Emerald access Qantas First lounge in MEL?

I do not know how this transit works in MEL (e.g., are the international and domestic sections separate....so a domestic flyer cannot access the First lounge?)
As above in Australia
  • international arrivals
  • international departures
  • domestic departures-arrivals
are physically separate. Are 3 distinct areas.
You can only access the MEL T2 international departures Qantas First lounge if you have a boarding pass/security/immigration check for a flight from T2 international. Are a very few limited AU domestic flights from the international departure terminal.

As above, T2 to T1 QF domestic is a 3 minute walk and up 1 level.
