The 7.0 requirement is due to phan 0.8. You could try changing the version of phan to a higher one (I used phan 0.8 originally because thats what Wikimedia used in their continous integration setup. Which in retrospect really didn't matter). I have not tried it with higher versions of phan. I have no idea how stable the phan plugin api is, so it could totally work with higher versions of phan - I have no idea. That is really something I should test.
You should be able to co-install both versions of php beside each other, with the php 7.0 binary named php7.0 instead of php. On macs homebrew will let you do this, and I assume other installation methods will let you do this too.

However, I'm on macOS with php 7.1.1 and reluctant to downgrade to php 7.0 or set up a virtual machine just for this.
