No, I'm afraid that this isn't possible.
If you have lost the master password and do not remember it then you can consider those passwords as lost.

The master password is used to encrypt the passwords (TripleDES in CBC mode), so you can't recover them.

You would need older copies of the files signons.sqlite and key3.db from before the change of the master password.
