Hi Markus,

This is not possible. According to Restoring a Space:

Export and import compatibility

To find out which versions your current Confluence version can accept space exports from, go to   > General Configuration  >  Backup and Restore .

If you need to import a space from Confluence 5.3 or earlier, you'll need to follow a workaround. 

The workaround is available below:

Workaround for restoring spaces from Confluence 5.3 and earlier

If you need to import a space from a version prior to Confluence 5.3 into a later version of Confluence, you can use a temporary Confluence installation to upgrade the space export to the right version number:

1. Download the same version of Confluence as the version you exported the space from (you can get older versions of Confluence at the Confluence Downloads Archive).

2. Install that version of Confluence on a temporary server.

3. Import the space into this temporary Confluence site.

4. Upgrade Confluence on your temporary site to the same version as the site where you want to import the space (see Upgrading Confluence for instructions).

5. Export the space from your temporary Confluence site (it'll now have the right version number).

6. Import the space into your production Confluence site.

Give that a try, and let us know if you have any issues!

Regards,

Shannon
