PyQt5 already *is* available for Python 2, most distributions even
have it packaged.

The only thing there isn't is a prebuilt Windows installer.

But since you're already converting to PyQt5 which will take some
effort and break some things, why not convert to Python 3 as well?

Python 2 will be EOL in 2020 as well, which isn't *that* far away.
There are various projects and guides to help;
