Use xc:black rather than xc:none.

This is not what I need!.. This just creates a black background and still it puts an opaque image on it. I need the transparent bg (wich I can get with xc:none or xc:transparent) and the drawn image (bg.png) should have 60% opacity...
Can this be done? Thanks.

Maybe omitting the "%"; I forget.

Refering to your original attempt using rgba(0,0,0,124), you can do it using a
'matte' color fill. matte uses the transparency valur of the -fill colro seeting to
seth the alpha channel of the filled area.
Note however that, as per SVG standards the alpha component of rgba() is a decimal number. EG: rgba(0,0,0, 0.6 )
convert rose: -fill "rgba(0,0,0,0.6)" -draw 'matte 0,0 reset' semi-trans-rose.png
If you want a black border around a semi-transparent black 'window', as you original example is impling, then just create such a rectangle, and add a black border
(you must use a "-compose Copy" setting to preserve the semi-transparency).
convert -size 64x64 xc:"rgba(0,0,0,0.6)" \
-bordercolor black -compose Copy -border 18x18 \

As with anything with IM, you can do just about anything. You just need to describe what you want exactly, rather than how you are attempting to do it.
