Use Force.com IDE for workflow modifications

Is it possible to use the Force.com IDE to perform workflow modifications?  Specifically, I have field that touches approximately 100 workflows/validations rules respectively and i'd like to swap out the current picklist field for a lookup field.   I'm trying to avoid having to go into each of my workflows and validations.  Any insight provided here would be more than helpful. Thanks in advance!

Tested updating workflows successfully using the force.com IDE.  There seems to be a slight delay but it definitely works.  I'll be backing up my schema before performing the change.
