Convert a category of posts to a custom post type using (MySQL) queries

Look at this Bulk post type conversion, there are listed SQL/WP ways to do that. Try to do that yourself first with a db copy.

In phpMyAdmin there is a box to run queries, called “SQL”. You can see a demo here http://demo.phpmyadmin.net/master-config/
