Yes, but you won't like it: upgrade your system to 19.10 and build Scribus yourself. I used to start Scribus and other Qt apps with various Qt variables for scaling. Usually, it looked bad. After upgrading to 19.10, none of that matters. Qt apps just run at proper scale factor automatically, at least from GNOME.
