Sure, but this is a useless savings that comes at the cost of awkward traceroute output that will initially confuse your new employees and consistently confuse your customers. Owen

If you use separate VLANs for each customer then the CPE router doesn't even require an external IPV6 address for DHCPv6-PD. IPV6 link-local addresses can be used between your BRAS and customer CPE router. Some CPEs can even allocate a WAN/mgmt IPV6 address out of the delegated subnet via DHCPv6-PD.

Short answer to that is “DHCPv6-PD”
Once the router has an external address communicating point to point with the ISP router, it should then send an DHCPv6-PD request asking for a prefix that it can manage. The ISPs DHCP server should then send back a /48 (or if you want to be silly, a /56 or a /60, and if you want to be insane, a /64).
