One trick I used many Legacy versions ago to duplicate a few different
individuals probably still works but it may be more complicated than you
wish.

First, as with all experimentation, make sure you have a good backup of
your files.
Open a new *empty* Legacy file -- I named mine "empty.fdb"
Then open this "empty.fdb" file in Split View with your family file as the
second file.
Select your family file and drag and drop the individuals you want
duplicated over to "empty.fdb".
Select "empty.fdb" file and drag and drop the individuals back to your
family file.
Do not merge or permit auto-merge to combine them.

Obviously, if you wish you can edit or modify those "empty.fdb" records
before copying them back.

Have fun!
