I would like to keep close/Min/Max to my own way in Ubuntu 14.04. Is there any way to customize it by software or via terminal?

I think that it is not possible. See also: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-tweak-tool/+bug/1309942 – lemonslice Aug 04 '15 at 12:39

You could use Gnome Tweak Tools. Find it here
https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/gnome-tweak-tool/
Note : You can only switch on/off visibility of maximize and minimize buttons.
Also, if you are interested, Elementary OS(Freya) has a custom tweak tool that allows you to specify location and visibility of max/min/close buttons from a single line in their tweak tool.
Update :
Use dconf-editor
Access dconf-editor by pressing Alt+F2 and type in dconf-editor
In dconf-editor access org->gnome->desktop->wm->preferences
In preferences change button-layout option like so -
[option - will go on left side] : [option - will go on right side],[option - will go on right side]
options : minimize | maximize | close
eg :
minimize,maximize:close
buttons will appear as
_ [] X
