I believe you need to create a 64-bit MSI for this. The 64-bit components would need to have the Win64 attribute set to "yes". Here is a snip from WIX help file...
Win64 YesNoType<mk:@MSITStore:C:\Docs\WiX.chm::/html/wix_xsd_simple_type_yesnotype.htm> Set this attribute to 'yes' to mark this as a 64-bit component. This attribute facilitates the installation of packages that include both 32-bit and 64-bit components. If this bit is not set, the component is registered as a 32-bit component. If this is a 64-bit component replacing a 32-bit component, set this bit and assign a new GUID in the Guid attribute. Hope this helps.
