Sure...
Create an event procedure in the Before Update event of the text box and add code that looks like this:
... where "txtMyText" is the name of your text box. You'll also want to set the format of your field to a number type and/or set an input mask or otherwise test for non-numeric data in the field so you don't get type mismatch errors.

Code:
Dim intRemainder As Integer
If Not IsNull(Me!txtMyText) Then
intRemainder = Me!txtMyText Mod 6
If intRemainder <> 0 Then
MsgBox "Invalid data. Value must be a multiple of 6."
DoCmd.CancelEvent
SendKeys "{ESC}"
End If
End If... where "txtMyText" is the name of your text box. You'll also want to set the format of your field to a number type and/or set an input mask or otherwise test for non-numeric data in the field so you don't get type mismatch errors.
