I don't understand why you can't do this today? Unless you want to use digital alongside all the analog IO at the same time?
You can set the FM9 IN2/OUT2 to digital, set the digital IO to SPDIF, word clock to external, and bob's your uncle.
I haven't tried this yet, but I have my AxeFX III set up this way with my interface and it works perfectly.
I don't get any signal into the Axe-Fx III unless it is set to have the external clock on S/PDIF in. The same is true for the FM9. What that means is that both devices would be expecting to see an external clock signal at their respecitve S/PDIF inputs but neither would be supplying said clock signal. If there is a solution to this I am interested.
