I found information on downloading and installing Firefox on a machine without internet access but we have only been approved to use v49.0.1. Where can I access that version to be installed on a Linux machine with no internet access? Thanks.

Many Linux distros already have Firefox installed by default, and use their own builds of Firefox, which are then updated with the rest of the Linux software.

It may be slightly odd that you are wanting to use an old standard Release. But yes it can be done assuming you have a method of obtaining the software over the internet for transfer to the Linux computer.

P.S. I should have mentioned that Linux often uses the ESR edition of Firefox which does not update as frequently. That is currently transitioning between Fx45 esr & Fx52 esr & I am posting from a Debian Linux machine using Fx45.9.0 esr.
