How to update an array by matching a single field with $[<identifier>] in MongoDB?

I am trying to do an update query on MongoDB.
Here is the request :

db.test.update({
        'id': 1,
        'tab': [{'code': 'A'}]
    },{
        $set:{
            'tab.$[tab].newField': 'value'
        }
    },{
        arrayFilters: [{
            'tab.code': 'A'
        }],
        upsert: true
    }
)

I use $[<identifier>] instead of $ syntax because I need to upsert the document if no match is found.
According to MongoDB documentation, this is not possible with positional operator $.

An example of a document :

{
    'id': 1,
    'tab': [{
        'code': 'A',
        'foo': 'bar'
    }],
}

In this specific case, the document will be upserted because the filter on tab needs the whole array to match.
But I want to update it.
Upsert would be used only if the id and the code into the array don't match.

Is there a way to select the array by a unique field, here code ?
