keyless entry on volvo 88' 760 turbo 700 1988

i have a 1988 760 turbo sedan which the driver and passenger lock cores have both locked up due to either cold weather or use. rather than spending the quoted 1100 dollars for lock parts and replacement, i was wondering if it would be possible to install a keyless entry system of some sort in this car. i took it to two shops, one said that they could do it and another said that this car had "vacuum actuated" door locks and that installing a keyless entry system would be impossible.

so does anyone know if this is possible, and if it is possible, would it also be possible to have such a system work if the lock tumblers no longer rotate?

any input would be happily accepted
