I dont' think there is room. I noticed it's pretty packed and with the third cap(which is need because it's so close) it's nearly butted together. There is also what looks to be a non conductive piece of pastic to keep everything from shorting together.

The other alternative would be to set it up like an F1 board. The crystal is attached to the board with two copper wires. The copper wires are soldered to the board and are wrapped and soldered around the legs of the crystal holder. That would be the best solution.
