There's nothing really magical about QAbstractItemModel in QML. They don't
turn into ListModel's, they are still plain QAbstractItemModel that have
the methods in C++. Their only superpower is that QML ListView can use it
as a model.

Just add whatever methods make sense to QAbstractItemModel to insert and
edit the data and call them from QML.
