You don't need a 32 bit virt-p2v to virtualize a 32 bit system,

I was going to say the same thing until I realized that the original system was 32-bit only, so couldn't run the 64-bit p2v. At least that's my understanding from the original post.
x86_64 CPUs are just x86_32 CPUs with a bunch of fancy extra features (to be slightly inaccurate but mostly true). The CPU can drive an x86_32 OS, it just won’t be able to use any of those fancy features.
You have the problem backwards. virt-p2v runs on the source system, so
if the source CPU is 32-bit only, then you have to run a 32-bit virt-p2v
executable. The resulting VM of course can run on a 64-bit host.
