Is there a way to change the textures of traffic in FSX?

Most certainly. However, unless you're willing to spend some (sorta lengthy) time using AI tools your best bet is going to be replacing default textures. Much easier than adding or deleting aircraft from AI flightplans . . .

Anyway, the easiest way would be to simply find a repaint of the default aircraft that you like and dropping the texture files into an already existing texture folder, overwriting files as necessary. If you do so, back up those files that you're about to overwrite. Generally, I just zip up the aircraft's entire folder and modify to my heart's content.
