You should be able to color match old and new planks with Ciranova Reactive Stains but this does take some experimenting and experience with chemical stains for a good match.
To get close to that look, using a reactive or mixing two, even with a little water will give you various aged looks, wood all ages differently under different conditions but with the reactive greys and browns you should be able to get close. You won't see the final color until an oil is applied, after the stain is fully dried. I would suggest even the first coat to be just clear maintenance oil on the new wood and then 2 coats of magic hardwax oil - natural over everything. The look won't be far from what's there now but repel the water and give you resistance mechanical abrasion.
This is probably for an experienced professional, it's not just the color you will be matching but the look and feel of the floor...
