Generally speaking for a coup the whole military has to be on board , either they agree to carry out the coup or are 'pacified'.
Add in intelligence services and media and get s complicated .
That's why dictators keep sacking and replacing people .
They try and make it as hard as possible to pull off a coup.
Also this is probably why the Turkish attempted coup is failing.Erdogan replaced the generals who were hostile to him.
