If you're handy you can probably find a video on YouTube on how to replace the motor. Rockautoparts.com for a cheap replacement, or a nearby junkyard. Worst case scenario, take the door panel off, and shove a small wood block (or whatever will fit best) in there to hold the window up.

You can pull it up manually. Open the door and push upward on both sides of the window with all your might. You may want to enlist assistance to take one side of it. I used to do this with my friend's 1992 Buick Regal all the time.
if you have spare suction cups for some reason they're helpful for doing this
Dual toilet plungers also work, but clean them first… My dad had a mid 70s Silverado with three on the tree, high beams on the floor, and a toilet plunger ring on the driver’s side window.
