Yes and No.
Some key configuratrion files are woody specific. Such as
/etc/network/interfaces
But if you have working woody version of apt system, you should be able
to downgrade all packages back to potato. (You get irony here :)
To be honest, I think it may be easier to fix it by upgrading to
unstable. There were long discussion recently and my web page may help.
