For anyone coming along looking for additional information, as of pip 20.1, 
which as I write this is about to be uploaded to Debian, building a python2 
virtualenv from python3 is fully functional.  It's as simple as:

virtualenv --python=python2.7 $NAME

This should be supported as long as we have a pip version that supports 
python2 (planned for removal by upstream in pip 21.0) and the python2 
interpreter is still in Debian.
