No. The Sync is One Way... FROM computer TO iPhone.


If you still have access to the Old computer that you used to Sync and Backup to... See Here...


iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer


Or...


To have everything as it was on the Old computer on your New computer...


From your OLD computer...


Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

An Added Bonus is that you will have a Backup of iTunes.
