clarifying:

do you mean "I want IPv6 hosts talking to IPv4 hosts and vice versa"? that is not dual stack (which is IPv4 talking to IPv4 and IPv6 talking to IPv6)
if yes, then what you need is a *Translation* technique

yes NAT64 is a translation technique used in a very specific scenario — where an IPv6-only client initiates a connection AND relies on a DNS resolver (enabled with DNS64) for name resolution.

why are you so sure NAT64 is what you need in this situation?
