I don't believe there's a supported way to do this.

The right answer here is to uninstall it and downgrade to a supported ESR
release, and make arrangements to manage the updating yourself in the
future.

Firefox 51.x is a general release, and general releases only have security
updates for the CURRENT major release version, with NO overlap.  As with
any internet-facing application, continuing use of an unsupported version
is a grave security risk - in this day and time, outdated applications
rapidly turn into potential backdoors. If it's necessary to maintain an
unsupported version, you should take every possible measure to isolate and
contain that version, such as running it in a virtualized environment that
can only access an absolute minimum of whitelisted resources, or running it
via some sort of thin client solution such as Terminal Services or Citrix
with similar network isolation.

ESR releases will ease the pain a little as they offer roughly a year of
support and guarantee a minimum of 12 weeks of overlap between supported
releases.  Additionally, this list and development blogs are used to
provide as much notice as feasible in advance of breaking changes. In some
cases ESR releases also have small differences in behavior as necessary to
support such things as managed configurations, centrally deployed
extensions, and private extensions, or to provide more time for enterprises
to adapt to breaking changes (for example 52 ESR allows administrators to
reenable some NPAPI plugins that are now forbidden in the general release.)
