Downgrade Sql 2016 Standard To Express
Is it possible to downgrade a Windows Server 2016 Datacenter instance to Windows Server 2016 Standard?
Upgrade a SQL Express installation to a full version of SQL using a media which does not include a service pack, or higher, using one of the following methods. Note: A server console backup is recommended before performing either of these methods Method One Run the full version of SQL setup application.

Edit:
This was marked as a 'licensing question.' In order to keep the question up, I have to make an edit explaining why it's not. My question has nothing to do with the ins and outs of Microsoft licensing. I'm interested in what's technically possible, not what's permitted. Take a look at the accepted answer. It has nothing to do with licensing. (It is true that Microsoft probably makes it impossible to go from Datacenter to Standard for licensing reasons, but that's beside the point.)

Didn't tried it in 2016, but;
DISM /online /Get-CurrentEdition to know the version and after;
DISM /online /Get-TargetEditions to know what it can be switched to, and after try
DISM CLI tool in Windows Server 2012R2 or lower as well as DISM cmdlets for Server 2016/Windows 10 support only version upgrade not downgrade. With DISM cmdlets you can issue Set-WindowEdition, and Get-Help Set-WindowsEdition clearly says you that this command 'Changes a Windows image to a higher edition'. For dism.exe mentioned by @yagmoth555 documentatin also clearly states: 'Use the /Set-Edition option with no arguments to change an offline Windows image to a higher edition.'

we have an old server that we want to dedicate fully as a public webserver (hosting a few DotNetNuke sites), and for this purpose we would like to install SQL Server Express (probably 2008) on the server and thus have both the Database server and the Web Server on the machine.
But: The databases for the webserver are hosted on a SQL Server 2005 Standard today.
So the question is: Is it possible to move a database from a Standard Server to an Express Server?

Answer: yes. It is possible. It is actually trivially simple (detach database, attach at new server instance).
Btw., take 2008 R2 express, not 2008 express. 2008 is outdated already.
