Combining PP upgrade to Premium Plus and paid upgrade to Polaris (from Y)?
Is it possible to upgrade a Y ticket to Premium Plus with PPs and then take advantage of a buy up to Polaris offer on the reservation info page? Would that Polaris offer take into account the Premium Plus upgrade, or would it still price based on the original Y fare?

With the exception of day-of and post-purchase pop-up upgrades, the "buy-up" offer is often the difference of fare paid and the available business class fare.
