This depends on which apps are being used for downloads. You would need to mod any of the apps that download content if they do not have an option to change the downloads path built into them. If the apps default is one of the following depending on your device:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
sdcard/Download
mnt/sdcard/Download
storage/emulated/0/Download
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then there is nothing you can do without modding the apk for those apps.
