Yes.

The logic is:
Wiki article contains somewhere included File:Some_file_or_image.suffix
File:Some_file_or_image.suffix contains among other things link (path) to 
actual image Some_file_or_image.suffix .
Suffix is jpeg, jpg, png, pdf etc.

So you can use wget to download File:Some_file_or_image.suffix then parse for:
<server>/<path>/Some_file_or_image.suffix put that in the list and then ask 
wget to download the list and put all files in one directory.

Upload is still manual procedure as MediaWiki software must know where the 
image is stored. As we didn't systematically use import feature now it can 
make unexpected conflicts with existing File:Some_file_or_image.suffix , nor 
very likely as Christian pointed, but still possible.

Just in case that you haven't seen.
We decided to use Wikipedia style for article title and section title 
capitalization. They use capital letter for first word in the title and for 
proper nouns. Applied to above LTSP_old and Archive:LTSP_legacy. 

In general it would be Archive:Some_article_about_the_Internet .
The Internet is proper noun in English.
