Impossible. It's too late to get any newer version into Buster and
every OpenCV transition is not trivial at all.
3/4 of opencv's reverse dependencies failed to build against opencv4.0.
I've just filed a bunch of bugs for this several days ago.

I agree that the version for Buster is ancient. BTW 4.0.1 was already
in experimental, along with significant breaking changes.

Maybe the next Debian stable release will ship opencv >= 4.0
