In theory, yes. You can use an Action (Tools - Action Wizard) to save your files as PDF/A. Just add a Save command and under its options select the following:
In practice, however, 14K files is way too much to Acrobat to handle in a single Action. You'll need to do it in batches.
From my experience 500 files is the maximum Acrobat can handle (depending on file-size and complexity) before choking/crashing.

Thank you!
Works out fine the way you described.
When setting this up I even found a preset action for doing this, called "archive document", or something alike, I use a swedish version so I'm not sure my translation is correct.
They set it up with a prefligt action wich seem to shorten the process per file.
I have not tried all the 14k files yet but it works fine with some 100 files.
