Since I will get my boarding passes at my city of origin on 3/31, will my boarding passes show OWE on both the boarding passes? If so, will I be allowed access to the First class lounge for my connecting flight?

I don't know about other programmes, but with CX, the downgrade happens on Amadeus within 1 hour after midnight Hong Kong time. Your boarding pass should still print Emerald though.
