I'm assuming 5 is taking place after 2 of course.
Or do you guys just want to pretend 2 never happened?

I'd be cool with her popping up. Even if its set before DMC2, I don't mind her making an "early-bird" cameo.
The end of the second light novel has her pop up to offer Dante the job in DuMary so you could reuse that here.
A bit less direct but yeah. Another way is just to have Matier send her to investigate RedGrave city and she meets nero etc.What you mean have her turn up at the end and be like “Did you have fun dealing with all that? Well great, I’ve got a job for you on Dumary Island.”...
Dante:.....Oh yey!...
It better be after 2.
It can be and still be set after DMC2 if it focuses on Nero. Then it's continuing his story which started in DMC4Itsuno already said it's a direct sequel to DMC4.

I stand by what I said unless I specifically hear or read someone say "DMC5 is set between DMC4 and DMC2"The term direct sequel implies there's nothing between this game and DMC4. Or it wouldn't be very direct now would it.
