This is what I've done for CX bookings using AS miles. I can just enter my AA FFN when pulling up my reservation for the first time on the CX website.
I tried that with AA back in November. You can read about my experience here:

I’d be curious to hear if people had better experiences, or if AS.com really recognized that my AS award had a non-AA’s loyalty number and thus denied me premium class seating selection. (of all the things they could spend IT resources on, I really hope they didn’t choose this one)
