I did it with my standalone (12V turbo) and it's a piece of cake, but it's worth is questionable as the spark strength from R32 coils isn't any stronger than the stock VR6 coilpack's.

Each coil needs a switched live, a ground to the head, a ground to the chassis and a signal from the ECU.

Only snag is you need 6 coil driver signals from the ECU. Motronic only has 3. Although they are still fired in pairs on the R32 (as per 12V), you could just pair up the 3 Motronic driver outputs for wasted spark, i.e. 1/6, 4/2 & 3/5. I've never tried that though, so can't guarantee it will work.

And lastly, the engine looks a mess with 6 COPs poking out the sides, lol.

In short, it's a nice little experiment but probably a waste of time for the gains you'll get, if any!
