1. Is their a way to "search and replace" information in a field?

Say I have a field, and its called "desc" and in it it has:

"The red car"

can I make that say "The blue car"? Or do I have to update the entire
field?

2. Can I add to a field, or does the entire field have to be updated?
Once again, field name "desc" data is "The red car", can I make it say
"The red car with blue lights"? Or do I have to update the entire field.
