I don't think this is stored in the index. I think the closest you can get is the "format" of the segments_N file which changes every time the index file format changes. That at least lets you narrow it down possibly to a single release if the file format is changing frequently (eg it has in the past 2 releases).
There's no public API to read the format. You could instead make your own class, in package org.apache.lucene.index, that implements a method similar to how the SegmentInfos.readCurrentVersion(...) method is implemented, but just returns the format instead.
