Is there any way to change Javascript, Which I'm an expert of to Ti-84 + Basic? It would really help me with my program seeing I'm new to Ti-84 + Basic language? Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
It sounds like it is impossible. TI-BASIC is (compared to JS) very very limited. And what part of JS? Also alert(), document.innerHTML, and even much much much more functions that are not possible in BASIC. It is probably possible porting variables. And what about more-dimensional arrays? What about a kind of sleep() function? I guess JS is too complicated to port to BASIC.
As PT_ said, Javascript is far too complicated to simply transpile to TI-BASIC. The restrictions of TI-BASIC necessitate a strange programming style that, in my experience programming in Python and Java, I haven't seen anywhere else. You'll just need to pick it up by reading, and coding with, TI-BASIC.
However, as a first step to learning TI-BASIC commands, associating them with JS equivalents could be helpful. I can't help with this, because I don't know any JS.

For starters, any language that allows you to have quotes in strings can't be transpiled to TI Basic

uhmmm, well you can put them in a string if you have the user input them... But then again, one would only really use quotes in strings to display specific messages, therefore, I think putting two apostrophes would look very similar. And can't this be done with dcs7? (storing a quotation mark and a store symbol to a string?) not too sure about this but I think I recall there being a command for that...
JavaScript is not only limited to quotes in a string, which is indeed possible with Hybrid Basic. But JS has so many more functions as BASIC, that it is almost impossible to port it. The main obstacle is not having functions, or use console.log(). Furthermore animations and alert() stuff. Next is having arrays like
Code:
which is absolute impossible in BASIC. If you absolute need to compile a JS-file to BASIC, I'm willing to help, as much it is possible though.
Code:
test['bla'];
I started to try and change it but your right some of the codes are almost impossible to transfer but you can make changes to make them similar but not exactly look the same. It's just gonna take a while to transfer if you know what I mean...
Hybrid BASIC is inherently not the same as BASIC. You can do virtually anything in BASIC *if you write an assembly library and put a wrapper around it*. For most applications this is not a helpful answer.
There are all sorts of relatively straightforward ways to encode higher level data structures and control flow operations into TI-Basic, including dictionaries and functions.

Well basic constructs in JS like
Code:
can be converted to something like
Code:
Remeber that tibasic has only 27 variables, A-Z plus theta
You can store data in lists too, btw.
Code:
if(foo==true){
console.log("apples");
}else{
console.log("cow");
}
can be converted to something like
Code:
if f
then
disp "apples
else
disp "cow
end
