I have seen 15Gs that have been rebuilt with 21 inch guns. Apparently convergence assemblies from 21 inch round sets were installed, and only the static convergence magnets were used. Because the screens are so small, they probably looked Ok without dynamic convergence.
It is possible that 15Gs were rebuilt with 15G guns in the early days, but I have never seen one.
As for recent attempts, John Folsom and Bob Galanter have been working with Scotty at Hawkeye in an attempt to rebuild a tube. They are close, but no success so far.
