In GMS1, you could prevent all textures from loading into memory at once by a check box in the global game settings for the Window platform.
To quote the manual, it says it exists in GMS2:

But I can't find it anywhere in Game Options for Windows. Where is it exactly, hasn't it been added in yet? I would rather not have every single texture load into memory if they don't need to be.It is worth noting that by default on the Windows platforms (YYC and standard) all textures will always be loaded into memory on start-up. If you are making a cross platform game, then you can leave this function in your code for the Windows target as it will not give any error and just not do anything. However you can also force the Windows target to not load any textures on startup and so use the flush and prefetch functions as you would on all other platforms (the setting can be found in the Windows Options window).
