Not so. When you go to Insert|Cross-reference > Figure, for example, the caption's full text is displayed. From that you should be able to work out which caption to cross-reference. That is certainly more informative than simply trying to reference a bookmark that tells you nothing of the caption's particulars.

2. I found that if I want to use cross referencing for two or more captions like:
... as shown in Figures 1 and 2 ...
then I have change the field code for those captions to { REF _Ref218925266 \# 0 \h }. Since I am not sure which of the caption would be called in the remaining of my text, then I have to change them all to get rid of the text before and after captions (label and caption).

That does not make sense to me. The only time you might need to do isolate the # is when you're referencing multiple captions at a time. You can also do that via {QUOTE 'Caption' \* Arabic} or {QUOTE 'Caption' \# 0}, where 'Caption' is the caption cross-reference and the field brace pairs (ie '{ }') are created via Ctrl-F9.
I believe the '{ REF _Ref218925266 \# 0 \h }' is derived from:
