Hello torus,
For i.MX6 serials processors, their XTALs has the same architecture, see below, please!

So if you want to use Oscillator 24MHz, not Crystal 24MHz, XTALO should be input PAD, not XTALI. See schematic of i.MX6UL, we can get usage from it. see below, please!

you can download full schematic from NXP website.
The oscillator's output precision, 30ppm is OK.
Have a nice day!
