Sure thing. Select the first sheet, and then, holding SHIFT, click that last
sheet tab. You now have all the sheets selected. (alternatively, you can use
CTRL to individually select worksheets) Now, select the cells in the current
visible worksheet, format, uncheck the locked option.

Unfortunately, this still requires you to go to each sheet and activate the
protection, unless you want to setup a macro to do it for you. You could then
assign a keyboard shortcut(Alt+F8, options) to the macro to make the whole
process slightly faster.
Basic protection macro:

Sub ProtectMe()
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
End Sub
