GCP supports enough IPv6 that you can host sites on it with an external IPv6 address. The user's internal network addresses might be IPv4, but that's (hopefully?) a detail not exposed to the public internet.

As evidence, my personal website https://john-millikin.com runs on a GCP e2-micro and is reachable from IPv6-only clients.

Azure does as well, it's only partially functional though, for example ICMP doesn't work.

Azure doesn't have a good ICMP implementation even on IPv4.
