As far as I understand, you need a Sup-2T to get dual-fabric connections
to all the slots.  So the answer would be "no".

The 6513 is lacking the backplane connections, which the 6513-E has.

But then, the Sup720 does not have enough fabric lanes either, which
the Sup-2T brings with it (... and then, you need other LAN cards,
with a DFC4).
