Running a 6502 that fast isn't a problem. 65C02s that can be clocked faster, and they could be then.
RAM speeds that fast were more expensive though, and running the TED that fast might be a real problem.
Running the main system RAM at higher speed would also present a lot of problems.
However, you could use a 64K cache that runs full speed.
Look at the Zip Chip for the Apple II for an example of this, and the Apple IIc Plus which integrated the Zip chip onto the motherboard. With faster RAM, a faster CPU, and a faster clock oscillator, the IIc Plus has been run at 10 MHz. Some people may have run it even faster.
