If I am flying the second leg in business class do I get to access both lounges even though the upgrade is from miles?
Not really. You'll be given an invite to the Business Class lounge in Dubai when you check in at Perth. You have to give the pass in when you get to the lounge. There is very little difference between the lounges anyway.

Correct, you'll get to use the Silver lounge.

You'll get the chauffeur service at Perth on the way out, Rome when you get there, and Venice on the way back. You won't get a pick up at Perth as you will be in Y class.
