Is there any possibility to convert the file format to .brd files
I think it would actually be easier to install Kicad and use pcbnew from there to view the .kicad_pcb file than to convert to whatever package you are running that uses .brd files. Also there’s the risk that the conversion isn’t accurate and the checks fail when it should or pass when it shouldn’t.
Alternatively ask a helpful person to generate Gerber files from the .kicad_pcb file and view those. Assuming the .kicad_pcb file isn’t an ancient version nobody runs.
Also note that a number of different programs create different files that all have “.brd” extension… one reason that KiCad is changing to use explicit extensions like “.kicad_pcb”
