can I use shimano 105 rd-1050 (rd-1051??) with 9 speed cog?

So i'm not sure exactly which Shimano 105 rear derailleur that I have, but lets say its the oldest at 6 speed. Will this derailleur be able to accomodate a 9speed cassette? I've seen that chart on Sheldon's website, but am just curious if more gears means that the newer derailleurs can travel farther to the left/lowest gear???

Thanks!
