Because the content is just recorded to a register, you can either

1) paste the register into a new buffer, edit, and re-yank back into a
register (either the same or another one)

2) assign to it with the desired changes:

:let @a=substitute(@a, 'foo', 'bar', 'g')

There might be other plugins that make this easier, but either of
those should work in most builds of vim.
