Can I use WifiP2pmanager class ( API 14) in older API ( ex API 9)?

I'm trying to program an app to discover wifi devices which are connecting to an Access Point. I found that WifiP2pmanager class can be used to scan wifi devices but it's just for API14. Is there anyway to use this class in older API ? (sorry for my poor English >.<)

Unfortunately - NO...

WifiP2pManager is part of new API called WiFi-Direct , and is a knowned technology to generate an AdHoc connection between WiFi devices without a needed AP.

people waited a long time before Google supported this API.

Previous Versions are not supporting this API.

No, you cannot use WifiP2pmanager on older API levels.

The only way would be to use the Android Support Package, however it does not currently support WifiP2pmanager.
