I don't think it is possible because VB.NET is based on a completely different platform (.NET) that contains so many functions VB6 doesn't have, that no converter will actually correctly convert the .NET code into VB6. You can try converting it by yourself, but you will run into problems just because the VB.NET program most likely contains pieces of code that didn't even exist in VB6 (like Mail, Threading or other classes included in the .NET Framework), so you will have to manually handle that.

True, but some functions can be substituted by Windows API Functions.

Still, I doubt that there is a converter that will automatically convert .NET-specific calls to WinAPI calls. This must be done manually.
