More than likely it will be a hard pull (if approved) and soft if denied (as usual) I doubt they will use the same pull, they will use the last soft for the CLI on your BCE.  Pretty sure they wont reallocate CL  to open a new account.

No AMEX will not move credit lines to open a card, and sorry to be the bearer of bad news, your CLI isn't an automatic approval, the fact that you were denied for a card doesn't bode well for getting a CLI at 61 days. Amex can be nice to get you in the door, but can be very conservative at times.
