Use vmware converter standalone, shutdown your VMs on source host and migrate.

Clean Answer is 'No' you cann't

The reason the virtual machine hardware version 3 used in esxi 2 is not supported in esxi 6.5. It is explained here Virtual Machine Compatibility

You have already been given best suggestion to do V2V using vCenter converter standalone. It is free download from vmware.
