Modern Pages in Existing Publishing Sites

Is it still recommended to create old school publishing sites in sharepoint online?

Will modern pages and their web parts be available in exisitng Publishing Sites?  We rolled out our Office 365 intranet last summer and one of the areas I think we missed on is the ability for departments or groups to publish news.  With the pages and web parts now available with Communication sites I'd love to be able to convert our existing department publishing sites to the modern pages.  It would make contribution and participation 100 times easier.  The current publishing model works well for corporate communication types, but it is too difficult and cumbersome for the part time publishers.  I'd love to be able to convert those sites without having to recreate new site collections.  The content is already in the site I just want to expose via the new modern pages and web parts.  I see the modern pages/web parts in my team sites, but I don't see them in my main publishing site.  Sorry if this has already been discussed.
