Depends on the airline but for American you can
Yes I used to do this with American when a co-worker had higher status than me if it didn’t look like my upgrade would clear without it.

You cannot add a passenger to an existing reservation but you can certainly book a new one together.
For United, you cannot link separate reservations together for benefits to transfer. Benefits are shared for 1-8 pax on the same reservation depending on your premier level.
If you and your friend already have separate reservations for the same flight, a few benefits may still apply but you will have to call or deal with it at the airport. These include:
-preferred seats/econ plus (call)
-complimentary premier upgrade (chat at travelhelp within 24 hours of departure or talk to GA/ground staff at airport)
-premier access/priority boarding (just use it and say they're with you)
