Yes you are right. The minimum freq for PLL refclk in Cyclone III device is 5MHz.
There are methods for PLL reconfiguration:

Design Example 1 in AN507 shows the PLL being reconfigured with one of three .mif files used to select output frequency. Is there a way - other than manually generating 65,536 .mif files - to achieve what I'm looking to do? Thanks.

Hi @BigSid
You can also reconfigure the PLL according to method 1 in

I have found that the PLL lock range can be as great as 2:1, so you probably don't need 65535 reconfigurations. Maybe only 4-8 are required.
