Import module with require syntax even though module uses import/export syntax

I have a JavaScript class defined as:

// MyClass.js
module.exports = class MyClass {
  //...
}

This is imported elsewhere as:

// otherModule.js
const MyClass = require('./MyClass');

I’m trying to convert MyClass to TypeScript, so it’s now defined as:

// MyClass.ts
class MyClass {
  // ...
}
export default MyClass;

I need to continue to import this using the require syntax in JavaScript files, however do so I need to do either:

// otherModule.js
const MyClass = require('./MyClass').default;
// or
const { default: MyClass } = require('./MyClass');

Is there any way I can avoid having to explicitly specify that I’m importing default? Ideally I’d want to continue importing this with const MyClass = require('./MyClass');, if possible, even if this means I need to change how my TypeScript class is defined/exported.
