I don't have a TMS z/y/x data set to play with but I do have a vector tile {z}/{x}/{y}.pbf data set that's not in epsg:3857 which I had some limited success with when I set both the layer and the project coord system to that of the tile source. By "limited success" I mean that it was in the right place, however the zoom levels are not correct. The OpenLayers configurations that consume these tiles have custom min/max resolutions defined, not web mercator zoom levels. And I don't see how to accomplish that in QGIS.
