Does anyone know whether it's possible to lockup the torque converter in 1st gear?

I have the same vehicle and have been told we don’t have a “lock up” type torque converter. The tiptronic may do.

I pretty sure the box locks up in 4th and 3rd. Not sure about second, and I have my doubts about 1st. But you never know!
If it will lock up in 1st, then I was thinking of putting a momentary push-button on the shift lever near the overdrive button. Then when approaching a steep descent, press and hold the button for extra engine braking...
