Based on the documemtation shared by @Ferregina Pelona.

You can configure IPv6 addresses on a virtual machine instance (VM) if the subnet that the VM is connected to has an IPv6 range configured. First thing to do, make sure that there is a IPv6 configured into your network.

Though, Google Cloud Platform allows users to connect to Global Load Balancer (this has external IP) using IPv6 but VPC Network DO NOT support IPv6.

Check out this documentation on GCP's Global Load Balancer.
