Unfortunately not

I had a similar situation at work. You can open 8 files in 9, but not backwards.

No compatibility between two versions.

Captivate projects can be upgraded to later versions but once that is done they cannot then be opened by earlier versions again.

So the bottom line is that Captivate IS backwards compatible but not FORWARDS compatible, because older versions cannot open and edit newer version projects.  This has always been the case with Captivate.
