AAAA is the IPv6 version of A records, which translate names to 
addresses. Nameservers are listed in NS records, regardless of the IP 
version.

Just use more nameserver records:

@ IN NS v4-ns1
  IN NS v4-ns2
  IN NS v6-ns1
  IN NS v6-ns1

v4-ns1 IN A 1.2.3.4
v4-ns2 IN A 9.8.7.6
v6-ns1 IN AAAA 11:22:33:44::1
v6-ns2 IN AAAA aa:bb:cc:dd::10
