Not without a pump or changing the overall drain. Why is the drain low, new lower sink?

We need more details like is this a kitchen sink or what?

Lead the drain the lowest possible spot, into a buried bucket, than pump it out from the bucket with submersible pump to where ever it needs to go...

Hope that helps

Otherwise you need one of those special gravity shield pipes... that don't exist. Water can be pumped to a higher location... but the law of physics dictates it can never flow uphill. It can only flow from a higher place to a lower place.

Gravity shield pipes. I laughed out loud at that one!
