You could use the search replace function, in regexp mode:

search for:

\b([a-z]+)([',]*)(\d*)

replace with:

<\1\2 \1'>\3

Select the music then press "All" in the search/replace bar.

This will match note, octave and duraction in three regexp groups. Then
the \1, \2 and \3 put the matched text back in the replacement string.
