how to remove some elements from an html file with notepad?

<a href="text/tirette-a-cable-boite-de-vitesse-manuelle-15187" class="ga-click js--header__cat-link" data-gac="Main_menu_parts_standard" data-ga-action="15187" data-ga-label="categories" data-category-id="15187" data-parent-id="10338" data-part-type="PKW">
<img alt="Tirette à câble, boîte de vitesse manuelle" src="./pathback/15187.png" class="mCS_img_loaded"> <span>Tirette à câble, boîte de vitesse manuelle</span>

HTML and regex are not good friends. Use a parser, it is simpler, faster and much more maintainable. A regex for such job will be terrible.

You really should write a script that have html parser (like php).
But if you want to do that with Notepad++, here is a way to go:
Ctrl+H
- Find what:
<img .*?src="[^"]+/([^/"]+).+?<span>([^<]+)</span>
- Replace with:
$1 $2
- UNcheck Match case
- check Wrap around
- check Regular expression
- DO NOT CHECK
. matches newline
- Replace all
Explanation:
<img # literally <img and a space
.*? # 0 or more any character but newline, not greedy
src="[^"]+/ # literally src=" followed by 1 or more non quote then a slash
([^/"]+) # group 1, 1 or more not quote not slash
.+? # 1 or more any character but newline, not greedy
<span> # literally <span>
([^<]+) # group 2, 1 or more any character that is not <
</span> # literally </span>
Replacement:
$1 # content of group 1, filename
# a space
$2 # content of group 2, test inside span
Result for given example:
<a href="text/tirette-a-cable-boite-de-vitesse-manuelle-15187" class="ga-click js--header__cat-link" data-gac="Main_menu_parts_standard" data-ga-action="15187" data-ga-label="categories" data-category-id="15187" data-parent-id="10338" data-part-type="PKW">
