Cut and paste doesn’t do the trick. The footnotes point to the anchored text on the original site. I want to change all the absolute links to footnotes on the new site. This is an open source academic paper with hundreds of footnotes. … endnotes to be more precise. I’m thinking this must be doable without vast amounts of manual labor but Google searches haven’t led to any tips.

Assuming the links are just # jump links, you can just remove the website domain portion from the link.
You can do that with the Better Search Replace plugin.
If you can share a url I can have a closer look.
