You don't need access to the old host to set up a redirect. If you are using windows server you would use iis 7 URL rewrite module 2. Or programing it into the code behind or routing engine. If you using another server type than you would need to create what ever master file that server looks for.
You wouldn't want your shopping cart pages indexed at all. They would be unique to each person.
If you meant your product pages than either duplicating the old URL or using a 301 permanent redirect to the new URL is the best practice.

-- I have an eCommerce site that was recently moved from one host to
another. It was also moved to a completely different shopping cart
therefore the structure and URL are different.
The move took place 12 days ago but has not been indexed for the new
pages. All searches reveal the old URL which now longer exist so I am
getting very little traffic and a lot of 404's.
I don't have access to the old host (hence the move) to create
redirects.
I was thinking maybe giving some new pages URL the same as the old
database and redirecting to the new page but the old URL also include
\item_84\page-url.htm
Any ideas please? I'm open to any and all constructive ideas
thanks
