4. CRS says:
"Note: the use of alternative coordinate reference systems was
specified in [GJ2008], but has been removed from this version of the
specification because the use of different coordinate reference
systems -- especially in the manner specified in [GJ2008] -- has
proven to have interoperability issues. In general, GeoJSON
processing software is not expected to have access to coordinate
reference systems databases or to have network access to coordinate
reference system transformation parameters. However, where all
involved parties have a prior arrangement, alternative coordinate
reference systems can be used without risk of data being
misinterpreted."
The last sentence should cover your use case.
