Please try this
foreach v of varlist em lnrwr lnreo lnpa lnna {
bysort id: egen mean_`v'=mean(`v')
gen demean_`v'=`v'-mean_`v'
drop mean_`v'
}

2. bysort id: egen mean_`v'=mean(`v')
3. drop mean_`v'
4. gen wem wlnrwr wlnreo wlnpac

Sinan,
You don't want brackets around the list of variables.

Sure, I inserted the variables and entered the commands as follows:
. foreach v of varlist [em lnrwr lnreo lnpac] {
2. bysort id: egen mean_`v'=mean(`v')
3. drop mean_`v'
4. gen wem wlnrwr wlnreo wlnpac
5. }
varlist required
r(100);
Sinan
