My understanding is this is do-able if booked carefully. But you have to book and ticket the whole itinerary, which is going to limit you to one year from ticketing date to last flight - no route changes or class changes allowed.
These OneWorld tickets have their own specific (and restrictive) regulations concerning stopover definitions, etc and you'd have to check what you wanted direct with AA.
