If the images were linked, rather than embedded and the replacements required a change in just the file extensions in the links, for example, sure the process could be automated with a fairly simple macro, but not easily with embedded images. For embedded images, you'd have to:
(a) make sure all the inline ones were numbered a separate numbering sequence from the wrapped ones. Inline image replacement would have to be numbered in the order in which they're located in the document. Wrapped images, would have to be numbered in the order in which they're anchored in the document (which may not be the same as their page placement); and
b) write a macro that could go through all the inline images, in the order in which they're located in the document and replace (and presumably, resize) them, as well as going through all the wrapped images, in the order in which they're anchored in the document and replace (and presumably, resize) them as well.
By the time the automation has been set up, coded & debugged for 80 images, you'd probably have already completed the job manually.
