It depends upon what type of document you pasted the images into.
If it is in HTML format, then the answer is no. The best you can do
is to save all of the images locally in a folder and modify the HTML
document to show where the images are now.
If it is a text document, then there is a simple way to do this.
Use Edit > Link to open the Edit Links window. At the bottom right of
this window is the button: Break Link. Since you want to embed all of
the images, highlight all of the images. Then click the Break Link
button. All of these images will now be part of the document the next
time you save it.
