Hi and welcome to Extreme Tech Support - Free PC Help.

I am afraid that USB ports and the USB system is unique, so there are no adapters to convert another port to USB as far as I know.

Having looked at the spec for your Latitude there is only the one USB port, so if it is physically loose, that will mean the connections are broken and will require repair for the port to work again.

If confident with the use of a soldering iron, it may not be too difficult to replace or re-fix the port providing the board itself is not broken.

If not, a good repair technician shouldn't charge too much to repair it.
