You cannot "[buy an] L fare". You may be able to purchase the L14TPC fare or the L14ZITPC fare, but only if you meet all the conditions attached to it.

Well, first of all, since you don't have a fare that you can purchase, the availability in the L booking class is irrelevant for your purposes. However, someone might have purchased a ticket a month ago and may now want to change the date. There could also be a fare published between another city pair (e.g. you are looking at XXX-YYY, and the fare is published for ZZZ-YYY with a connection in XXX) that has no advance booking restrictions, etc.
