If you're in no hurry, you COULD loop over all of gc.get_objects(), identify all those which are instances of old_class and "somehow" change their classes to new_class -- of course, x.__class__ = new_class may well not be sufficient, in which case you'll have to pass to update a callable to do the instance-per-instance job.
