Yes, you can put your modified kernel sources named linux-2.6.tar.bz2
in the dl/ folder, and select the BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_SNAP. The internal
Buildroot toolchain build procedure will then use this kernel version
for the kernel headers of the toolchain.

Note that this isn't used a lot, so it might be possible that things
are broken, I haven't tested it right now.

Best regards,

Thomas
