If you placed an image as a linked file then just copy/paste that image as many times as you want. When you want to update the image just save over the image with the same name. When you go back to Illustrator you will be prompted with "Some files are missing or modified in the Links panel. Would you like to update them now?" Select Yes.

You can also change all of the same images by selecting them in the links panel and selecting the "Relink" chain icon and select a new or updated image.
