You should be able to do this while you're waiting for your replacement Kindle to arrive -- it should show up in your account already, and you can re-download the books to your computer (specifying your new Kindle as the target device)...then doing the replacements as noted above.

(Of course, this is all another motivation for one to strip the DRM from purchased ebooks.)
