If you go to the product page, you will see that the PCI-6023E does not have any analog outputs.

Is that any easy way to convert the digital output to analog one?

A digital output will only put out a High level or a Low level (usually 5V and 0V respectively).  I guess you could use a separate DAC (Digital to Ananlog Converter) chip.  But that usually will involve some somewhat complex programming and line toggling.  Plus you will need many Digital lines.

 

If you want to keep with PCI, I would probably go with something like the PCI-6010.  Or there is the USB-6008 if USB is an acceptable bus.
