I wanted to post my solution for now.

I've written my own interface NiosII interface to the ALT_REMOTE_UDPATE module. With this module I can set the "Application Base Address", "WatchDogTimer TimeOut value" and can make a trigger to switch to the application address. Within my NiosII I can read from the EPCS device by using the EPCS controller.

I also made a Service Request at Altera to ask support to implement the ALTASMI_PARALLEL together with Nios II EPCS Serial Flash Controller, however they can not help and say it is not possible.
