There is no simple way to do this. There are complex and dangerous ways. One way would be to install the x86_64 kernel and boot the system with it. Install an x86_64 bit system and configure it the way you'd like your target system to be set up. Use rsync to copy /lib64 and /usr/lib64 first, then use rsync to copy the remainder of the system.

Otherwise, you'd probably boot the system from some other media and replace the i686 packages with x86_64 in a chroot-type setup.
