Upgrade 2.2.2 to 2.3.3: Keep my old 3rd party modules or rebuild them or reinstall from scratch?

Anything with C code (and everything you described there has C code)
needs to be rebuilt (and/or redownloaded). (Most projects have 2.3
binaries available for download already). Generally speaking, major
versions of Python (x.x releases) are binary-extension incompatible with
previous versions (x.w).
