I assume you want to process all directories, but not any files.
$ for D in */; do k9copy --input "$D" --output "$D.iso"; done
Alternatively, you can use "find" to select files and directories more
precisely (like at different depths, etc):
$ find . -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec \
k9copy --input "{}" --output "{}.iso" \;
