In recent version of FME, it is possible to define a tolerance value when using transformers such as LineOnLineOverlayer.

 

We are having an old FME server (2016) and I would like to know how can I proceed to define a tolerance value when overlaying two lines datasets in FME 2016?

FME 2016 didn't have this option, you can sort of emulate it though by snapping the lines to eachother first, using a Snapper or AnchoredSnapper. Both have a tolerance option, though not the "automatic" tolerance setting that later versions have.

 

On a side note, as support for FME 2016 stopped 2 years ago this may be a good time to consider upgrading.
