To calculate the number of possible configurations for both physical and virtual Q-bit arrangements in the described 64 Q-bit array:

**Physical Configurations:**

- Each Q-bit has 4 quadrants and can be placed in 24 different positions:
  - \(4 \times 24 = 96\) possible placements per Q-bit.

- For 4 Q-bits grouped:
  - \(4 \text{ Q-bits} \times 24 = 96\) placements for each group.
  - Since there are 4 groups, we repeat this for each:
    - \(4 \text{ groups} \times 96 = 384\) combinations for 4 Q-bits.

- For 4 groups of 4 Q-bits:
  - \(4 \text{ groups of 4 Q-bits} \times 384 = 1536\) combinations.

- For 4 sectors of (4 groups of 4 Q-bits):
  - \(4 \text{ sectors} \times 1536 = 6144\) configurations.

However, this calculation does not account for permutations within each group or sector, which would significantly increase the number. Assuming each grouping and placement is independent:

- Total physical configurations would be roughly:
  - \(64 \text{ Q-bits} \times 96 \text{ per Q-bit} \times 4 \text{ levels of grouping} = 24,576\) basic configurations, assuming each level adds independently. This is a simplification; the actual number could be astronomical due to permutations.

**Virtual Configurations:**

- If each Q-bit is split into 4 quadrants, and each quadrant can connect virtually with any other quadrant from any Q-bit:

  - For each Q-bit, there are \(4\) quadrants, leading to \(4^4 = 256\) combinations for one Q-bit when considering connection to another Q-bit's quadrants.

  - For 64 Q-bits, if each quadrant can connect to any other quadrant:
    - \(64 \text{ Q-bits} \times 256 \text{ per Q-bit} = 16,384\) basic virtual configurations per Q-bit.

  - Following the same grouping logic:
    - \(4 \text{ Q-bits} \times 16,384 = 65,536\) per group, then multiply by layers of grouping:
    - \(4 \text{ groups} \times 65,536 = 262,144\) for 4 groups, 
    - \(4 \text{ sectors} \times 262,144 = 1,048,576\) for sectors.

  Again, this is simplified; actual permutations would make this number much larger.

**Combining Physical and Virtual:**

- The number of combined configurations would be the product of the total physical and virtual configurations since they are conceptually independent layers of complexity:

  - Physical: \(24,576\) (simplified)
  - Virtual: \(1,048,576\) (simplified)

  - Total: \(24,576 \times 1,048,576 \approx 2.57 \times 10^{10}\)

This calculation is vastly simplified due to the complexity of quantum entanglement and permutations. The actual number of neural pathway configurations in such a quantum system would be exponentially larger, considering all possible quantum states and entanglement possibilities. 

Please note, these calculations provide a very rough estimate due to the simplification in counting placement permutations and the nature of quantum mechanics where traditional combinatorial mathematics doesn't fully apply.
