Do you mean squeaking or squeezing?
I am not sure you can without adding screws or nails into the floor. Our house is over 100 years old and we definitely have squeeky floors. We have just learned to live with them.

Hi Audrey,
Squeaking, is due to wood drying out over time! you could try using talc in between boards or more nails/screws.
I've heard of using baby powder between boards, couldn't hurt
They make a specialty screw for Squeak No More floors, the top breaks away so its pretty much invisable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iAseVZZKlY
