I don't think you can do that, it would require running a mixed cluster which, 
going by the docs, doesn't seem to be supported.

I think you can, but not without downtime.

The main problem is the monmap which contains IPv4 addresses and you want to 
change that to IPv6.

I haven't tried this, but I think you should be able to:
- Extract MONMap
- Update the IPv4 addresses to IPv6 using monmaptool
- Set noout flag
- Stop all OSDs
- Inject new monmap
- Stop MONs
- Make sure IPv6 is fixed on MONs
- Start MONs
- Start OSDs

Again, this is from the top of my head, haven't tried it, but something like 
that should probably work.

I think you could configure all of your mons, osds and clients as dual-stack 
(both IPv4 and IPv6) in advance.

Once you have confirmed IPv6 connectivity everywhere, add a new mon using its 
IPv6 address.

You would then replace each mon one by one with IPv6 addressed mons.

You can then start to deconfigure the IPv4 interfaces.

Just a thought
