I've never tried it, but with some ingenuity, you may be able to wire the
6V ones in series.  You would need to insulate the cover from the body of
one carb; there's a gasket between the joint faces, then stop the cover
screws or clamping ring making electrical contact with the cover, and
insulate the spring from the operating arm under the cover.

I may be overlooking something obvious from my computer chair.  It would be
worth a look anyway.  You then link the two connectors and put power to the
insulated cover (small self-tapping screw to hold a 1/4" tag maybe?).
