Depending on the airplane and the airline OpSpecs, a coupled approach may be flown on any instrument (or visual) approach. The big differences are the specific autopilot modes used, the lowest altitude to which the approach may be flown, and whether or not it may be flown to touchdown (autoland).

I've never seen the term "autocoupled" before...
