yes, since squid5 the happy eyeball algorithm as described in rfc 8305
is used. If your ipv4 connectivity is better than ipv6 than ipv4 is used.
I'm not quite sure how this is established.
See RFC 8305 for the general approach, search squid.conf.documented for
"Happy Eyeballs" to find relevant configuration directives, and see the
following Squid commit message for a subset of Squid implementation caveats:
https://github.com/squid-cache/squid/commit/5562295321debdf33b59f772bce846bf6dd33c26
Antony is correct that ICMP is pretty much irrelevant here. A brief
algorithm description in Antony's response is easy to misinterpret, but
it can be used as a rough approximation of what is actually going on.
AFAICT, we do not have a good understanding of how the implemented
algorithm actually behaves in various deployment environments. If you
believe your IPv6 connectivity is better than your IPv4 connectivity,
you may want to investigate why your Squid favors IPv4.
