HYD-DOH is on Indigo
DOH-DFW is on Qatar

I just chatted with Qatar through live chat and he told me award tickets are not eligible for cabin upgrade.
If Indigo will sell you an upgrade at the airport is probably your only option. Operating carrier's policies will be the ones youl have to focus on. But yes, award tickets would not be upgradable for avios, unless you can' find J availability for the whole route, cancel and rebook (with all of the risk of loosing the ticket that carries)
