Is the Ubuntu version 9 too old? I run Ubuntu 9 in a VM because I'm trying to use old software. Now index files fail to download. Is it impossible for that to work?

Yes. Ubuntu 9 is no longer supported, which means that the software repositories are no longer available. It is not even possible to use the Ubuntu 9 tools to upgrade to a supported version (you would need to reinstall).
