Electrically, I see no particular reason why you couldn't provide 6v to the #5 wire side of the switch, although your bulb will not BLINK if you have that turn bulb selected, AND the brakes applied. The bulb will stay on SOLID, rather than BLINK. I WOULD disconnect that #5 wire from the MAIN UNIT. You MAY want to throw a cheap fuse holder in that 'NEW' power circuit, as you should understand that the reason for a fuse is to protect WIRING....not that switch.
Personally, I would change-out the entire turn signal switch.
