I thought that would be impossible. Otherwise you can just chain them, and travel further than 6 hours, or more than 6hours over a day.
The Test McGonagall administers seems ridiculously stupid. She should be aware of ways to counter act it. It seems odd that there is no way to simple find out how much a time turner has left or even where/when it was used by looking at it, or using the <retrievelogfile> spell.
I expect that you can chain them, but you still can't travel (or even send information) more than 6 hours back in time. That restriction is part of the nature of time, not a limitation of time turners, and a chain of time turners can't break it any more than an individual time turner can, even if you were to turn it 7 times.
That's my interpretation, anyway.
