Is there an option to "enable" the 64-Bit Context Menu to have 'displayed' an option for "Show 32-Bit Context Menu"?

I find it more usefull to have the 32bit context menu as default
as it contains specific XY functions and also a lot of system wide context menus items
from many tools which install both versions of their context menus.
From this I have the option to show the x64 context menu
but I almost never need it as most tools are displayed in both cases.

Yes, I've done the same. HOWEVER, the problem is if you have a complex selection (CTRL+LEFT CLICK, CTRL+SHIFT+LEFT CLICK, etc.) of file objects and/or have selected those file objects via drag method AND you need to perform a context menu action 32-bit popup, and you select to 64-bit and you do not have the action available in the 64-bit and need to return to the 32-bit you have to deselect the contact menu and re-activate the 32-bit. Which on a complex selection can (and often) results in losing that selection. Since not all functionality exists between 32-bit and 64-bit context menus going back and forth, seems a natural workflow, especially, if you are dealing with complex file object selections. Obviously, resolving and having identical 32/64 bit context menus would be ideal, but isn't possible depending on your specific system configuration. Generally, I've worked around this concern, but have encountered the above scenario with a significant greater frequency.

No, that's currently not possible, because there is no callback from the 64-bit menu to the app.

FYI:
Ctrl+CtxMenu Key -> force 64-bit context menu
Shift+CtxMenu Key -> force 32-bit context menu

Concerning losing the selection: Edit | Select | Restore Selection
