It is easy to print multiple finger dots on the same string, but you will
need to use the verbose format if you want to use a predefined diagram. The
terse format is limited to one fingering per string.

This is correctly done as a fret-diagram-terse string (note that there are
no string numbers).

This is a normal, rather than terse, fret diagram string. Normal fret
diagram strings are not allowed as part of storePredefinedDiagram. The
terse format does not include the string number.
Try the following:
\storePredefinedDiagram #default-fret-table
\patternB
#violinTuning
#'((open 4)
(open 3)
(place-fret 2 1 1)
(place-fret 1 2 3)
(place-fret 1 6 4))
This should work (but I haven't tested it).
