Swapping colours is a point operation, and pixels do not know anything about
high order spatial structures in your image. So by colour swapping alone you
will not be able to select pixels in the red blood cells without selecting
other similarly pink pixels outside the cells. You probably need to use a more
complex segmentation procedure for that.
You can, use the macro function:
changeValues(v1, v2, v3)

I do not think you can. You need to read the documentation.
http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/docs/tools.htmlIt works for uniform colours only.
You can however sample a rectangular area with the colour threshold plugin
