I don't believe there really is an easier way.
You can download a kernel.org kernel or the fedora kernel source and built it to be 64-bit and boot that on a 32-bit userspace and that will get you around some kernel memory/resource limits, I did that previously on one of my machines for 6-12 months before doing a clean reinstall to 64-bit.
I dont know if you can convince dnf to install a 64-bit fedora kernel on 32-bit userspace, if you can and it boots and it has the right settings compiled in the kernel by default then that kernel will work with a complete 32-bit userspace.

Hi All ,
Is there a possibility to convert an existing FC27.i686 to FC27.x86_64 OS ?
I installed long agoo the i686 architexture on elder machines and did proceed doing so on 64 Bits and PAE capabel machines .
Now I intent to switch from i686 to x86_64 : So the question is , can I do so only by a fresh install , or is there an "easier" way ?
