Is it possible at this time upgrading step by step from 12.2-RELEASE to 14.2-RELEASE?

Nope. Not the base system at least. Try with something like:

pkg query -e '%a = 0' %o > ~/installedpkgslist

from the console as root will make a list of your installed packages. Then remove all installed packages with

pkg delete -aFy

then reinstall everything with

pkg install `cat ~/installedpkglist`

Thanks, I would try it

The command "pkg query -e '%a = 0' %o > ~/installedpkgslist" gives an error, I have replaced with "pkg query -a '%a=0' %o > ~/installedpkgslist".
Then installedpkglist shows a large list like 1=1, 1=1, 0=1,... and so on.

Actually my idea is to get mouse working in pure mode text like old releases, 12.0 to 12.4 in example. No problem there when running the O.S., immediately appears mouse pointer after login in, pure mode text, no GUI.

But since 13.0 mouse does not appears in console's pure mode text. I have installed minimal 13.0-RELEASE without GUI and mouse does not appear in console after login. Always I have moused-enable=YES in rc.conf, but such a sentence is not the actual problem.

The image below shows mouse working in 12.1-12.2-RELEASE, but in 14.0-14-2 mouse just does not work in pure mode text. That's the reason I have tried to upgrade from 12.4 to 14.0. Inspecting dmesg after pkg-static upgrade -f appears some errors like I post below

That is why i suggest using -e instead of -a so the list contains only the packages installed by the user, and not all libs and dependencies and so on.

Are you running in a VM or on real hardware. If on real hardware the errors does not mean anything as they are about memory management in a VM.

Does startx work now ??

Running a "VMWared" machine. I do not know what images I have put were.

Here the images, console is inside a virtual machine, 12.1-12.2 Release, mouse works perfectly, buy something is wrong when updating/upgrading from 12.2 or 12.4 to 14.0, look the image below, seldom kernel errors appear.
