Do airlines allow passengers to take an unrelated trip within a return flight?

Accepted answer
There's no problem with this. People do it all the time. In contrast with other "creative booking" techniques, you're not abandoning any part of any ticket.

What you describe is perfectly fine (it doesn't violate any airline terms and conditions). However, be careful to allow sufficient time between the flights. In your case, you'd want the separate Japan-Mongolia-Japan flights to return you to Japan with ample cushion before your Japan-Australia flight. Otherwise, if your Mongolia-Japan flight is delayed or cancelled, you might miss your Japan-Australia flight. I'd suggest at least an overnight between your Mongolia-Japan flight and your Japan-Australia flight.
Another option that in some cases is less expensive is to book an open-jaw and a one-way ticket, for example, Australia-Japan-Vietnam and Vietnam-Australia.
