Given the number of dependencies LilyPond has, including dependencies that
interact with low-level aspects of the system like Guile and Fontconfig, I
strongly doubt this will be easy. MacOS 10.9 has been unsupported for six years
already.
The problem isn’t LilyPond’s or its dependencies’ support for older macOS,
which is better than even the system support. The real problem is Apple
preventing you from upgrading your computer past a certain macOS version.
