Yes. Something like this (untested):
#!/bin/bash
while (( $# ))
do
date=$( ls -l --full-time "$1" |
awk '{ print $6" "$7 }' |
sed 's/.00000*//g' )
iconv -f CP1255 -t UTF-8 "$1" > "$1-utf8"
touch -d "$date" "$1-utf8"
shift
done
If you want to replace the files, you could proabaly use recode, which keeps
the time unless told otherwise:
Exec=recode CP1255..utf8 %f
