It is not possible if you do not have the Registration Key.

OTOH- Your Registration Key may be available in your account at Adobe. ADOBE ACCOUNT 

Find your serial number

If 6.14 is still installed on the old system you may find the Reg No. with Belarc Advisor, or look in C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Lightroom with file explorer

You can download v6.14 from Adobe here- Lightroom 6 End of Support 

If your v6 was an upgrade from v5, or earlier, you will also need the Registration Key for the earlier version.

 

My mother would say "you are flogging a dead horse", as new computer systems require App upgrades and with Lightroom-Classic now at v12.1 you are many versions behind with v6.14.
