I am not that familiar with AA. Is there a possibility to buy coach tickets and use miles to upgrade so that OP's 130k miles would be enough for upgrades for 2 to Hawaii and also for the return or is AA just so tightfisted on releasing upgrade space that this is impossible?

Yes, you can of course buy economy and upgrade with miles. Finding upgrade space can be easy or hard, depending on the flight and season, etc., but its certainly not impossible.
