Not exactly what you're looking for, and probably not best practice,
but this should be close enough: I'm running both Unbound and BIND
on the same machine, the first one only on IPv4 and the second
one on IPv6.

Then Unbound is configured to use BIND in the IPv6 loopback
interface to get the data for the local zones:

# unbound.conf
interface: 127.0.0.1
interface: 192.168.1.50

stub-zone:
        name: "home.arpa"
        stub-addr: ::1@53
stub-zone:
        name: "168.192.in-addr.arpa"
        stub-addr: ::1@53

# named.conf
options {
        version "restricted";
        directory "/srv/named";
        recursion no;
        listen-on { none; };
        listen-on-v6 { any; };
};

I'm assuming that you could get something similar with NSD.
