One way of doing it I can think of is to use the same (old) version on your new devices, make a backup of the old device, and load that backup on the new device; and you can then upgrade the new device to the lastest version.

 

But the devil is in the detail, of course, i.e. whether the upgrade will be successful depends on what your configuration is like, and the compatibility of your conf across versions.
