I don't think you can change the behavior of a link type to take into
account somethink similar to graphicspath, but you can easily define
custom link types: For instance, put this in your org-file
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+LINK: fig file:my_figure_path/%s
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Then you will be able to You write a link such as 

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[[fig:some_figure.png]]
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


ps: Remember to do "C-c C-c" in the #+LINK line after you insert it.
