Ungroup then regroup them. You'll find group/ungroup/regroup on the Drawing
toolbar but you can usually also get it from the popup menu when you
right-click the chart.

Simplest might be to set them all to manual update then make the linked XLS
files unavailable (rename them or move them to another folder).

It works but the result is not very nice.
I would prefer to convert them not just pictures but enhanced metafiles. Is
it posible?

Try this:
Select the chart
Press Ctrl+C to copy it
Choose Edit, Paste Special...
Pick Enhanced Metafile if it's on the list
