The repo contains all the old versions of files as well, so if you are
downloading manually you only need to pull the most recent versions.

An alternative approach might be to try this in your network connected
box:
sudo qubes-dom0-update --action=download <pkg-name>
I *think* that dnf will do the right thing and resolve dependencies for
you. This should download the packages to the current directory, then
you can transfer them to the offline box and install them manually.
dnf will select the most recent version if you only give a package name -
if you want a specific version you can specify that.
