No, you can't. The reason Django removed support for mod_python is because
mod_python is an unmaintained project - and that's coming direct from the
maintainers of mod_python. That means it isn't getting bug fixes, nobody is
looking after security issues, or memory leaks, or fixing any of the myriad
problems that mod_python had (including, but not limited to, a lack of
support for Python 3).

This isn't a recent change, either. The Apache project moved mod_python
into the "attic" on 16 Jun 2010. That's 3.5 years ago.

Seriously - there's no reason to be using mod_python these days. You should
be using a container based on WSGI -- mod_wsgi if you want to stick with
Apache, or any of the other excellent WSGI containers (e.g., gunicorn).
