FYI you are mixing the terms and dependencies quite a lot here.

"Page Module" is a *module* in the *BE*.

MTB is an *approach* to use Typoscript to build websites, TV is a
similar but different *approach*, which also delivers it's own 'Page
Module'.

*Frontend-Editing* can be applied to both of them. For FE-Editing there
are multiple pre-build helpers/additions:
- adminPanel (which should reside in the bottom) => can be configured
through TSConfig as you already have been pointed to
- editIcons (which are configured through typoscript, see TSOB, TSRef)
- editPanels (which are configured thorugh typoscript, see TSOB, TSRef)

I think you are talking about editPanels then. As said it's quite easy
to add your own editpanels via typoscript(TSREF->EDITPANEL).

One last hint: styles.content.editPanelPage
