No, they really depend on 5.3.3 upstream.
https://github.com/os-autoinst/openQA/commit/65d4a5299259baf838504030603da133c1c02d13#diff-7ae45ad102eab3b6d7e7896acd08c427a9b25b346470d7bc6507b6481575d519L23
and attempting to build with 5.2.3 fails because some of the files
contained in bootstrap have changed names since then, and openqa refers
to the new (5.3.3) names.
Upstream jumped from using 4.6.1 straight to 5.3.3. They have never
attempted to use 5.2.3, so there's not a useful set of commits one could
revert, and their exhaustive testing has all been against 5.3.3, with no
testing whatsoever of something built with 5.2.3
That being the case, while I suppose one could try finding all those
changes in bootstrap and attempt to get openqa to use the old names in
order to check if it works, I'm not convinced that doing so would be a
worthwhile way to spend one's time.

I thought that I might be able to get on with something while I await
the arrival of the two node packages[1] currently in the NEW queue.
It makes no real difference whether bootstrap-html gets into backports
now, or when those two node packages do, as I won't be able to backport
the new version of openqa until all three are in backports anyway.
I also won't be able to upload a new openqa until they're through NEW,
hence the lack of a versioned depends in the current sid version.
Cheers, Phil.
