... be rendered ... current webbrowser?

Only under the circumstance that the stream is not of the html type.

That is not rephrasing, it is a new Q. And finally on topic.

You would need your html to a string a string. 
Regex only works with/on strings.

What is the string you like to use? 
Please show an actual example.

var myString = '....';

What part of the string do you want to replace by what?

This is a tricky task, please answer extensively, 
not just replacing in the example you give, like:

var myString = 'I am just another guy';
var myString = 'I am just this guy';

See then you would not need any regex at all.

So not some html, 
html as such can only be manipulated by regex, 
if it is first retrieved and converted to a string value.
And the converted string needs to be reinserted into the html.
The how-to may be left for later. 

Please show a character string.

... and please show what you have tried already.
