Mike,
Depending on the fixed range of the PTO, no reason you could not put a proper crystal in the module to mix with the standard PTO to produce the 60m band. The modules contain the xtal controlled local oscillator for 500 khz band segment, and a LPF for the final signal for the band chosen.

As you may know, the 10m module has a switch to select the first 500 kHz of the band or the second 500 kHz, but it does not go all the way up to 30 MHz, leaving out 29 to 30.

You would need some band specific components for both circuits, the final 60m LPF and the mixer/ oscillator.
