You would need to find an earlier car if you wanted to do a conversion. Its TONS of work on a 964 but possible. The earlier cars would be the easiest to do.

RS in picture was done by a local shop in Knoxville. It's a 964 and the changes are not significant. I prefer the lighter weight 911's if I was doing the conversion but this car turned out very nice.

It takes a lot of modification to make a 964 into a long hood. I would prefer doing it to an earlier car too and it would be a lot less expensive.
