On the current version of Firefox on Android, you cannot disable JavaScript. To be honest, JavaScript is used so much today, that tends to break the majority of websites anyway.

However, you can disable some tracking JavaScript using the Enhanced Tracking Protection in Firefox for Android.

Running outdated apps can leave you vulnerable to security holes, so it's not recommended for regular use.

That said, it is possible to download an older version of Firefox. All of the old versions of Firefox are published to the Mozilla archive server as APK files.

Keep in mind that if your mobile device's app store is setup to perform automatic updates, it may eventually upgrade you back to the current version of Firefox.
