/dev/hda5 that mounts /usr
and
/dev/hda6 that mounts /

/dev/hda5 is about 90% full and I would like to know if I can move some
dirs from /usr to the /dev/hda6

??

No. It's a bad plan. / should be about 64MB. BTW, 90% full is nothing.
There's plenty of space.  There's still 20% of the disk left (yes, you
can shrink the reserve for root down to nothing ... it's a readonly
filesystem, right, and therefore can't "fragment" any more!).

If you want to, create /usr/share as a new partition. That should take
a lot of the strain off. And /usr/X11R6 is also
traditionally a different partition, saving you 654-128MB. It is
important that /var and /home (and /opt) be separate too, but that
doesn't affect you. The only other thing you can do is be sure that
/usr/local is separate.
