Is it possible to upgrade a Debian 8 (Jessie) to 9, 10, 11 and eventually 12? It is reccomended to upgrade one release at a time. But! 9's repositories are archived. How can I upgrade form 8 to 9?

Thank you in advance!

Use the archive?

deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ stretch main contrib non-free deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ stretch-proposed-updates main contrib non-free deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-security stretch/updates main contrib non-free

I gotta ask though, why?
