I mistakenly changed the song tag name to the artist's name. Can this be undone on hundreds of songs?

That depends if all the data can still be seen somewhere.  
Best would be a screenshot of the extended tags dialogue of a single file.

Does that mean that the filename has data for the field TITLE?  
A screenshot of the extended tags dialogue Alt-T for a single file would show such sources and the target fields.
