Not to my knowledge, but you can use the LTS version of Firefox. Which if I remember is still compatible with older plugins. It will be a year before Mozilla refreshes with the newer branch.

It won't last that long. The current ESR version of Firefox is 52. It will be switched to 59 at the start of March 2018, and 52 will be completely discontinued in June 2018. That's a little over 3 months until it becomes annoying to get a copy of, and a little over 6 months until it's dead.

All prior Firefox builds are easily accessible via Mozilla's web interface to their FTP server at http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ . For example, the latest FF52 ESR update for English Windows x64 is at http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/52.5.0esr/win64/... .
