24mm on 6x6 gives a 110deg AoV. You would need a 15mm lens on 24x36 format
to get that wide a view.
BUT, as Jeff has pointed out, the lens register will likely be wrong (unless
you only want to do macro work. As you can see from the following examples:
Hasselblad 500/2000 74.90
Kiev 60/Kiev Six 74.10
Kiev 88 82.10
Kowa Six/Super 66 79.00
Mamiya 645 63.30
Mamiya RB 112.00
Mamiya RZ 105.00
Pentacon 6 74.10
Pentax 6x7 84.95 (74.10?)
Pentax 645 70.87
Rolleiflex SL66 102.80
Olympus OM 46.00
Olympus E1 38.67

I doubt you'd have the image circle to cover MF except with maybe the shift
lenses. If memory serves, the 24mm shift has an angle of view of around 16mm
(in 35mm terms) so that'd be a fun wide angle.
Other than that, you're right that a lens of the same focal length gives you
a wider angle of view when moving to a larger format but you do need to make
sure that the lens can actually cover that larger format.
