Upgrading from coach to biz on *A RTW

Are upgrades using miles available on *A RTW booked in coach? My guess would be I can't use miles on one carrier to upgrade on another, but what about the same carrier. For example,

Can Mileage Plus miles be used to upgrade UA segments of a *A RTW?

Can Aeroplan miles be used to upgrade AC segments of a *A RTW?

You can use UA miles to upgrade UA metal on RTW but AC has no method for using miles to upgrade whether RTW or "regular" flights.

Mileage Plus miles can be used for upgrades from eco to business on UA and on LH segments (no upgrades from business to first on 3-class-'rides).

miles&more miles can be used for upgrades from eco to business on UA and on LH segments (on LH segments also for upgrades from business to first).
