What do you exactly want to do?
Update the "input" component's HTML or change the field value (using apex:inputField component)?

Hi Enreecco, For Example, I have custom lookup field in the vf page as Input field. From the lookup field i will select the value from the existing record. If i thought the value in the record was wrong. So In the Vf page after after selecting the value from the lookup i will edit the value in the input field. Then I want to update the select record with my changes in the input field. Is this posiible?

If I understand, you want to check the value of the lookup field and reset it if "you don't like it's value".
You can do something like this:
  1. implement a apex:actionFunction that will post you form to a given apex method in which you can check the value of the lookup and reset it if you need
  2. use the "onchange" attribute of the apex:inputField you can call the actionFunction of the step 1, so every time you change the lookup value the apex controller is invoked
