I guess you are talking about Windows? Of so: There is no binary for 
such an old R version available.
Of course, you can compile from sources, given the package does not 
actually depend on a newer version of R (which is not declared but not 
that unlikely given the package did not even exist at the time  R-2.6.0 
was recent).

it without losing my "packages" already loaded earlier i.e. if I
upgrade to R 2.10, I don't wish to reinstall packages like lmom, lmomco,
quantreg, YieldCurve etc.
See the manual "R Installation and Administration" as well as the
FAQs.
