AFAIK, there's nothing you can 'hang' on a door to significantly reduce sound leakage.
I assume it's a typical hollow-core interior door. So my quick take would be to replace it with a solid core. For example, see Masonite's "Safe-'n-Sound series. Then weatherstrip it like it was an exterior door.
Why do you think carpet replacement requires a door replacement?
