Ubuntu 18.04 has 1.14 Gstreamer installed and libx264-152. Is it possible to upgrade it to 1.16 or 1.18 as well as some dependent libraries like: libx264-155 and libx265? Whether some PPA exists or need to build from sources?

Yet, it is possible. Use the following PPA for both x264/x265 and GStreamer:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/ffmpeg4
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:savoury1/multimedia
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Reverting is possible by

sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:savoury1/ffmpeg4
sudo ppa-purge ppa:savoury1/multimedia

You can always use both Y PPA Manager or visit https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas to do a search by yourself.
