I think what you're asking for is one of the examples included in the PyMol source code. You can do this manually using the mutagenesis wizard, but it is possible to drive this wizard through scripts. The two examples can be found at: http://pymol.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pymol/trunk/pymol/examples/devel/mutate01.pml?view=markup and http://pymol.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pymol/trunk/pymol/examples/devel/mutate02.py?view=markup
