Will a 15mm bolt through hub fit on a normal dropout fork? Or can the hubs be converted to QR?

No kit available to do so. Options are getting an engineer to make some adaptors for you could be pricey or rebuild with new hub.
Rebuild with a new could be nearly as expensive as a new wheel build if the spokes can't be re-used or the rim needs replacing.0 -
see this thread.

if you go down the rebuild thread and the new hub has the same dimensions as the old one you can use the old spokes."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
