At least sorting should be possible with Ebib:
http://joostkremers.github.io/ebib/ebib-manual.html#sorting-the-.bib-file
Searching for a string in a particular field is also possible:
http://joostkremers.github.io/ebib/ebib-manual.html#filters
But replacing that string is a different matter. Perhaps in the next version...
