Not at this point. You would have to upgrade to Sierra.

Click here and download it. If you get told that it can’t be installed on your computer, go to one compatible with it but not Sierra, or a newer one running 10.6.8, and move the installer to yours.

Since Sierra has now been released now, why do you think you want to upgrade to El Capitan?

Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

Application Compatibility

Applications Compatibility (2)

El Capitan 10.11 Compatibility information

macOS Sierra 10.12: Compatible Apps

Also check to make sure there is a compatible driver for your printer.

Do a backup before installing, preferable 2 backups on 2 different drives.
