Is the hardware capable of 64-bit? If so then it should be possible
to install an amd64 kernel and e2fsprogs without completely
converting your system to amd64.

    https://wiki.debian.org/CrossGrading

(Stop after booting in to the new kernel and then install
e2fsprogs:amd64)

You should then be able to fsck larger ext* filesystems.

There is also the "crossgrader":

    https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/crossgrader

(though it is only in testing and unstable it is intended to work on
stable as well)

You may or may not find that simpler.

Cheers,
Andy
