 I hate to say it, but, they can suggest, and they can request, and they can even beg, but it's gonna be the "best interests" test no matter what.  They might get a presumption that their choice is a sort of a prima facia showing of what's in the kid's best interest, but someone can still overcome that showing.
(ETA - this presupposes that someone else wants the kids bad enough to fight for them in court.)
