You should be able to import the NS bookmark via an HTML file.

If that Netscape version is using a key3.db file for the encryption key and a password file (signons#.txt or (number).s) then you should be able to copy those two files to the Firefox Profile Folder to make Firefox import the passwords saved in that file.

You need to rename the password file to signons.txt and remove an existing file signons.sqlite
