I don’t think it’s possible, since a Transit/Studio package becomes its own project in memoQ (it’s not imported as a file into a "normal" memoQ project.

What you could try is the following:
1. For each project obtained from a Transit/Studio package, create a view that includes all documents in the project (in case there are multiple documents)
2. Export that view as MQXLZ (bilingual memoQ XLIFF)
3. Create a new memoQ project and import all MQXLZ files into that project
You should now be able to treat this as a regular memoQ project, ie. use filters, views, global search & replace etc.
Once the entire project has been translated, export the translated individual MQXLZ files and reimport them back into their original projects.
No guarantee it would work (never tried), and whether the added productivity would compensate the extra work.
