The same way it works for IPv4?

PPP is a link layer protocol, on a par with Ethernet or ADSL (in fact,
ADSL /uses/ PPP to transport data between your router and the DSLAM). It
doesn't really care what data is being transported, so there should be
no problem using IPv6 on a dial-up modem.

The problem you do face is not a technical one, but rather a
financial/business one. You would need to find either an ISP who provides 
native IPv6 (rare at the moment) and does so on dial-up lines or alternatively, 
use a tunnel broker such as HE.net or SIXXS.net to be your IPv6 endpoint in 
their stead.
