Downgrading PHP 5.4 to 5.3 on CentOS 6.5?

It seems you have a installed a lot of additional PHP modules from remi repository. When you downgrade PHP, there dependencies are not available anymore. You could try to downgrade them as well
yum downgrade php*
But this will probably also fail as not all of these packages are available in the standard repositories
I'd suggest to remove all PHP packages first:
yum remove php*
Afterwards, you can reinstall the packages you need from the standard repo:
yum install php php-cli ...
