    Ok. I repeat the last time my question.

    I haven't SQL Server 2012 media.

    I need to prepare a SQL Server 2012 installation having SQL Server 2014 installation.

    It is possible to downgrade from SQL Server 2014 to SQL Server 2012.

    No databases are present on the machine to host SQL Server 2014 to downgrade.

    Now, how can I execute to downgrade SQL Server 2014 to SQL Server 2012?

    Does anybody know how can I accomplish this task?

    I think this is a valid question, and I can imagine a need for new instances of prior version servers. Obviously this means that if your vendor requires 2012, you don't go purchase 2014 however, unless you have access to 2012 media.

    Something like http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/

    edit: didn't mean to imply I had an answer, its just that I can understand the situation that would generate the question.
