No. You can't. You can use a 8.1.5 client to export a 9.2.0.3 database
though.
Oracle is *downwards* compatible which means a *lower version* client
can connect to a *higher* version database. The other way around is
usually not supported.
Also, the export dictionary is upgraded with every release.
