I had a Debian Server with Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.3

I installed phpmyadmin (sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin).

Now, the versions of Apache and PHP have been upgrade (2.4/5.6)

Is this possible? How can I avoid this?

You might have upgraded partially to Jessie... What does apt-cache policy libapache2-mod-php5 say? –  Stephen Kitt May 5 at 13:37

Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.3 were the versions available in Debian Squeeze (Debian 6). Your /etc/apt/sources.list points to both Squeeze and Jessie (Debian 8), so when you asked to install phpmyadmin, apt-get automatically picked the latest acceptable version and its dependencies; these were taken from Jessie.

To avoid this in future, you need to remove the jessie lines from /etc/apt/sources.list, and ideally add those for Squeeze LTS (see Using LTS for details) to get some security support. You'll need to manually revert phpmyadmin and its dependencies; apt-show-versions can be used to identify packages which don't match Squeeze.
