A good try.  You can do:

\score {
   \notes {
        c''_#'(rows (bold "I") (super "6") (((kern . -1) sub) "4"))
        % or use direct tex...
        c''_#'(bold "I$^6_4$")
   }
}

Super and sub in markup text are only related to font size and
vertical shift.  I don't think that can be easily fixed.  Hmm.

Also, I found a bug in markup text, it seems that you need an extra
set of parentheses around the last sub, I'll will look into that.
