OK... First off, this method of keeping the throttle more than 0% is called "No-Lift Shifting" AKA "Power Shifting".

This is easily done on cable-driven throttle bodies and on some newer cars with electronic "Fly-By-Wire" throttle bodies. I believe all cars since 2005 are fly-by-wire. For example, on my 2007 Solstice, you cannot power shift. The throttle body automatically closes if you try to power shift. But newer models now allow this.

With the syncrorev matching system on with the 370z, I wouldn't attempt this. With it off, I'm sure it's possible.
