Yes, that should be possible, if you still have the license key. If you have problems activating it, you may have to contact Microsoft. From what I've heard, they are generally very helpful in such situations.
Best wishes,

Or should I purchase Office 2013, is it cheaper to buy 2013 rather 2016?

The current version is Office 2019. Microsoft doesn't sell Office 2013 (or 2016) anymore, so you'd have to find a retailer who still has copies of Office 2013. I have no idea how cheap or expensive that would be.
Best wishes,

If you are considering the Pro version of Office, you ought to consider subscribing to the personal version of Office 365. See Get the most from Office with Office 365 for more information and Microsoft's list prices. You can usually find a better price on the Internet at Amazon or Ebay from a reputable vendor.
