Hello,
I have print company and many people send me file (PDF) with spot color for cut contur.
They don't use wright pantone for my cutter, so I want to remove or recolor pantone in Adobe Acrobat.
If I open file in Illustrator there isn't font in outlines or they forgot to embeed pictures.
So I want to solve my problem in Adobe Acrobat - is it possible to remove spot color and how can I do this?
File like this in attachment.
Thank you for answer!

Here is some information about how to convert spot colors to process colros: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/color-conversion-ink-management-acrobat.html
If you want to remove objects that use a certain spot color, you would need to use the preflight tools in Acrobat. I wrote up a tutorial a while ago about the general process: https://khkonsulting.com/2017/03/remove-content-from-pdf-files-using-acrobats-preflight/

Is it possible to create a Javascript (that i will put into an action) with the specific spot color name to achieve the same result?

Look at the colorConvertAction object in Acrobat's JavaScript API. It's been a long time since I last used that, and a quick search though my notes did not reveal any sample code.
