I thought you were asking whether an instructor can log the approaches that a student flies under the hood toward the instructor's own currency.

The answer to that is no, no matter what ratings the instructor has on the CFI certificate. The Rule is 61.57(c) which requires that for a pilot to log approaches in simulated conditions for currency the pilot logging them has to be under the hood, not someone else in the airplane is in simulated conditions while the pilot claiming them has his eyes wide open in visual conditions.
You obviously don't understand the REG either. However, I called the FSDO today and they told me that a CFI can give instruciton under the hood including approaches. However, they only need the 15 hours with a CFII for the sign-off.
