Sorry just not possible!
The older MagSafe chargers are really a dumb device the controlling logic was within your MacBook system.
The USB-C charger is a smart charger where over the USB connection the charger and MacBook Pro talk to each other. So the charger knows what to do from what the MacBook Pro tells it.
Sadly, one can't make a sows ear into a silk purse ;-{

And what about use lower “wt”than mine? (My is 87wt)
Not following you here??
The correct charger for your MacBook Pro is the 87 watt USB-C charger.
Are you suggesting you want to buy a lower watt charger? That won't help you as it wouldn't charge your system battery correctly, and it would do it much more slowly depending on the wattage of the charger.
Don't be penny wise, pound foolish here.
How about using a MagSafe to USB-C adaptor/convertor like this:
