AFAIK, you cannot do arithmetic transformations with regular expressions at all (other than adding or removing one or more numerals from an existing number). You'd need a scripting language for it.
If you posted a code snippet of a paragraph with a footnote reference, the actual footnote code and the desired transformation, the regex gurus might come up with a solution.
