No.

Please note about LTS releases. They get SECURITY updates, not VERSION updates.

Yes you need to add two rows to your /etc/apt/sources.list

This is a 'universal' method valid for all Ubuntu releases

In short please open a Terminal from the menu Applications → Accessories → Terminal and type or copy and paste, one row a time then press enter:

echo 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu' $(lsb_release -cs)' main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list

echo 'deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-daily/ppa/ubuntu' $(lsb_release -cs)' main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter

Then add this repository gpg key copy and paste this row into terminal and then press enter:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 247510BE

Then update your system type:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5

Hope this helps

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  firefox-3.5: Depends: xulrunner-1.9.1 (>= 1.9.1) but it is not going to be installed
               Depends: libasound2 (> 1.0.18) but 1.0.15-3ubuntu4 is to be installed
               Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.16.0) but 2.12.9-3ubuntu5 is to be installed
               Depends: libnspr4-0d (>= 4.7.3-0ubuntu1~) but 4.7.1+1.9-0ubuntu0.8.04.5 is to be installed

Sorry i made error, the previuos repository is for the daily build of Firefox development release

Open a terminal and please remove the latest 2 repositories sources rows added previously into your /etc/apt/sources.list file type:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter

Save and exit

then...

To get stable release of Firefox-3.5 you must add a repository to your /etc/apt/sources.list
 this repository https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-security/+archive/ppa

In short please open a Terminal from the menu Applications → Accessories → Terminal and type or copy and paste, one row a time then press enter:

echo 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-security/ppa/ubuntu' $(lsb_release -cs)' main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list

echo 'deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mozilla-security/ppa/ubuntu' $(lsb_release -cs)' main' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list

give your user password when requested, you don't see nothing when you type it, then press enter

Then add this repository gpg key copy and paste this row into terminal and then press enter:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys A6DCF7707EBC211F

Then update your system type:

sudo apt-get update
