I have two old instances of firefox (version 18 and 24) with sync set up; these are not accessible. How can I get the data from that account migrated to the new Sync backend without disconnecting these clients from Sync?

The old and new sync use the same backend but that may not help you here; if for instance; you were hoping to do directional merges.

Note the old and new syncs use a different account, and that the new sync only offers a merge option.

Relying on sync alone to backup bookmarks could result in all devices having corrupt bookmarks listings. If you have bookmarks involved I personally strongly recommend you manually back them up before making any sync changes, and thereafter do so at regular intervals - say every 2nd week. Sync is not good at handling large changes and large merges of bookmarks, corruption or duplication could occur.

Note there are plans to deprecate the old sync
