You will need to install the appropriate 32-bit libraries on Linux to use the 32-bit version.

The 32-bit Firefox 52.9.0esr was a requirement Only for Windows and not for on Mac OSX and Linux. The 64-bit Mac OSX and Linux Firefox 52.9.0esr from Mozilla could run other NPAPI Plugins besides the Silverlight and Flash Player Plugins as the Win64 Firefox 52.9.0esr would only allow to run.

Very few current things online now days still require the use of the NPAPI Java Plugin from Oracle. Right now only IE still allows the ever vulnerable Java Plugin to run.

Why do Java, Silverlight, Adobe Acrobat and other plugins no longer work? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/npapi-plugins
