Do it outside of Webstorm on linux (or Windows git bash) with ..

cd my-folder

find . -name "*.t1" -exec bash -c 'mv "$1" "${1%.t1}".t2' - '{}' \;

courtesy of Recursively change file extensions in Bash

This works recursively, make sure you cd to the correct folder first (typically your project root folder).

There's no way to rename multiple files in the project in WebStorm, unfortunately. You can vote for the related issue on JetBrains issue tracker.
