Is IPv6 IPv4 proxy possible on Yandex DNS?

There is a cheap NAT VPS that needs to host a website with IPv4 access. The provider has dedicated IPv6 and offers to use Cloudflare's IP4->6 services. The domain is now registered on Yandex DNS and I don’t want to transfer it somewhere. Does the service from Yandex support similar functionality (Yandex allows you to make an AAAA record) or does the DNS server perform some other manipulations and one AAAA is not enough and still you need to transfer the domain?

Yandex DNS and Cloudflare proxy are different services. Yandex is not suitable if you need IPv4 access

You don't need to transfer DNS anywhere for this.
Only one Yandex will still not be enough for you.

DNS has nothing to do with proxy.

You will first understand what DNS does in general, and what is IPv6 - IPv4 proxy.
DNS tells the client which IP address to send the TCP packet containing the HTTP request to when it wants to access your site. It doesn't matter what IP you have - v4 or v6.
And a proxy allows you to make your site available on v4, even though your hosting provider only gives you v6. Yandex DNS only gives your IP to a request for an address assigned to your domain name. DNS cannot turn this address from v6 to v4, this is not its function.
