It would probably be way cheaper to buy a composite video to VGA converter for your C64:

Then plug the output of it and your Amiga into a VGA monitor switcher:

and the output of your switcher to the VGA monitor.

The bonus would be that your Amiga wouldn't have to be on every time you just wanted to play C64 games.

Of course, you could also run a C64 emulator on your Amiga too if you really wanted to.  Magic64 or Frodo.
