If you have the settings right, after you send the address and have the last bit high (to indicate you want a receive), the PIC should have a register that will fill up with the next transmission from the slave.
I've never implemented an I²C slave but I would imagine that as long as you write 0x82 to the SSPADD register of the slave then it would work as you describe. You may have to check the D/A bit in SSPSTAT to differentiate between the address and data bytes.
Be aware that writing to EEPROM is slower than I²C and so you may have to implement clock stretching.
