Is it possible to configure Squid so that if an object becomes stale and

If so, what other control can be used in this case? Say you want to
allow it to run an hour over expiration before purging it. Or you wanted
to set how often to retry the source server.
This question is specifically for 2.6, but it would be great to know if
things have changed with newer versions.
Thanks.

Not possible in 2.6.
You need 2.7 with stale-while-* options
