Is there a way for me to convert or transfer my MileagePlus miles into ConnectMiles so I only need to spend 30,000 miles for the flight instead of 50,000 miles?

Thanks

I'd say that conversion is not possible. Regarding the lower price you see on Copa for the flights you are looking for, let's remember that despite most of Star Alliance members share the same redemption rates, it's up to each airlines to offer specials, or temporary discounted tickets.
