Yes. * I usually change one occurence in LyX, * save the document and * open it in my text editor. * Now I can compare what it should look like and replace all other occurences with the new variant, * save the modified file but keep the text editor open (so I can undo the changes in case something went wrong) and * do in LyX File>Revert (which is Reload from disk) and override the warning that all my changes are lost.
