Nope. You can do this if you've stored _all_ the fields (with the exception of _version_ and the destinations of copyField directives). But there's no way I know of to do what you want if you haven't.
If you have, you'd be essentially spinning through all your docs and re-indexing just the fields you cared about. But if you still have access to your original docs this would be slower/more complicated than just re-indexing from scratch.
