An experimentally feasible magnetometer based on a dual-coupling optomechanical system is proposed, where the radiation-pressure coupling transduces the magnetic signal to the optical phase, and the quadratic optomechanical interaction induces a periodic squeezing effect. The latter not only amplifies the signal to be measured, but also accelerates the signal transducing rate characterized by an experimentally observable phase accumulation efficiency. In the vicinity of opto-mechanical decoupled time, the ultimate bound to the estimability of magnetic signal is proportional to $\exp(-6r)$, and then the optimized accuracy of estimation can be enhanced nearly 3 orders with a controllable squeezing parameter $r<1$. Moreover, our proposal is robust against the mechanical thermal noise, and the sensitivity of a specific measurement can reach to the order of $10^{-17}{\rm T/\sqrt{Hz}}$ in the presence of dissipations and without ground state cooling of mechanical oscillator. Our proposal fundamentally broadens the fields of quantum metrology and cavity optomechanics, with potential application for on-chip magnetic detection with high precision.
