You would have to run 2 tubes. If you stack them one on top of the other they would be in series and double the voltage. You can do it but you would need to run a board (TI or OKC) to bring the voltage down to 3.7
If you use the the 10 Amp regulator, you can run a sub-Ohm atomizer if you ever want to mess around with it. Dual coil rebuildable atomizers can often end up with resistances under an Ohm. The 6 Amp regulator is good for just about anything in a more typical resistance range an Ohm and above. It's only a difference of $2 so I would just buy the 10 Amp regulator. Better to have it and not use it than want it and wish you had it.One of the nice things about using that particular regulator is since it's a switching regulator, it conserves power. Higher input voltage translates to less current loading on the power supply. Amperage demand on the cells is cut in half since voltage is double. Very cool since it gives you a wide option of cell types to use. Cells with a 6A drain would be perfectly adequate to take the regulator to its output limit.
Good luck jumper on the okr build. You may want to consider using shorter batteries like the 18350 stacked. The 18650 stack would be very tall for a practical tube mod.You mentioned an all day vaping time. Stacking batteries is series. It doubles the voltage and the amp hours stay the same. With parallel batteries the voltage stays the same but the amp hours will double. So.... parallel will give you more vaping time.
Run them in series and use a regulator. It's really quite simple to wire up one of the Murata OKR regulators.http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Murata/OKR-T-6-W12-C/?qs=%2fha2pyFaduh2WQLU0PDa8lp%2fyb8n3MJSf1kIZ9dvbr4%3dhttp://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Murata/OKR-T-10-W12-C/?qs=%2fha2pyFaduiffsVHBt9VRMG4xsP9iEwyyeQnI92WuJk%3d
