As far as I know as a user of CC by means of programing or crafting you can't.
In order to do that you would have to modify the Java code of CC itself that making you a modder and I think you would need permision from Dan200 if you want to go public with it and insane java skills.
My thought process is that considering other mods modify chest sizes all the time ( ironchest, EE, etc) it's totally possible but you would have to modify the mod itself…even modifying the turtle functions so it can actually use those extra slots.

you could use a chest with transposers or any loading/unloading method and just teach the turtle to go back and swop for the items it needs

Set up the turtles like this:

 ^
>.<
 ^
>, < and ^ are turtles, the top one being the one used.

The top one, once out of materials, turns around to pick up the blocks the other 3 turtles place at the location of the period.

Not a very smooth solution, but one that probably works.
