Short answer: You can't.
Long answer: It is possible to scan the file using an ocr software (google it) and convert it into a word document. The result often is very pathetic, but you never know. You could also import your pdf file to photoshop and remove the part you want to replace by erasing (if bg is white) or by clone stamping. Then, you could write whatever needed in the closest possible color/font etc. Your best bait isto hire a photoshop professional if you need quality work.

If the full feature driver of the scanner is installed there will be an OCR software associated with it, which can be used to edit the text and other things.
