Oh my gosh, you would have to maintain JCL forever for that and a dozen other 
reasons.

BUT! Conceivably ... conceivably ... you might stabilize it and do everything 
new in Rexx going forward.

Subject: REXX as JCL replacement

Once upon a time a LONG time ago this was a GUIDE  requirement.  It was
voted down due to the amount of automated systems that generated JCL.
You'd have to keep JCL, probably forever, because of those systems.
