I think so but I know very little about it.

I found this:

Fido Year 2000 Tools Rel. 6 by Tobias Ernst
===========================================
PKTDATE  1.5  is a program that can analyse
PKT files for structural errors that result
from year 2000 related bugs in the creating
software and automatically  fix such broken
PKT files.  It is intended for use  at  hub
level in the Fidonet distribution structure
in  order  to  alleviate the effects of the
year 2000 problem  on  the smooth operation
of Fidonet.  Also included  are  a  general
information  text  on the year 2000 problem
in Fidonet,  and  tools  for analysing MSG,
JAM  and   Squish   message   base   files.
Includes  OS/2, Win32, DOS, Linux and Amiga
binaries and source.  Unzip with -d option!

It is Y2KTOOL6.ZIP at http://archives.thebbs.org/ra53a.htm.

However, it only fixes inbound packets.  It won't fix outbound packets.
