I need to export posts and content from an old WordPress Site for a customer, to import on their new website. Is there a way to run the old website on my local host? Or is there a better way of getting the data.

WordPress has a built-in Posts and Content exporter I would use something like Duplicator to backup the whole site and migrate to your localhost to use the built-in Posts and Content exporter.
But if you still have access to a working old site, I would just export from there and import on the new site
If you can access database, export cvs/xml file for post and content and then use this plugin to import to new WordPress site.
