AT&T new line activation and using that phone to cover another line

[ChubZ]

My wife's phone broke and wants an iphone. The only issue is that it's not eligible for an upgrade. Can i activate a new line and use that iphone to cover her line. I know I will have to upgrade to a data plan on her line. And the downside is i get charged 9.99 a month for the new line. I've did this before for upgrades but not new line activations.
