If I understand this correctly then you want to update
the LOCAL RPM files to the latest version?

I am not sure but you could try "yumdownloader" 
with some kind of bash script:

 for f in `ls -1 *rpm`; do
  echo Working on file: $f
  rpm=${f##*/}
  name=${rpm%%-[0-9]*}
  echo The name of the rpm: $name
  yumdownloader $name
 done


This is NOT tested but you could give it a try!
