I've published pcb scripts that do block-copies before, for example my
16-channel powermeter board.  The renumbering commands are in there
too.

Here's another copy, note that the renumbers are cumulative.

LoadFrom(Layout,powermeter-blank.pcb)
LoadFrom(LayoutToBuffer,channel1.pcb)

# left upper, first one already there
# First is at 200,0

PasteBuffer(ToLayout,0,30000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,0,80000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,0,130000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,0,180000)

# Now skip 300 more for the next five

RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,0,280000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,0,330000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,0,380000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,0,430000)

# Other side 
pastebuffer(Rotate,2)

RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,290000,110000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,290000,160000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,290000,210000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,290000,260000)

# skip

RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,290000,360000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,290000,410000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,290000,460000)
RenumberBuffer(0,10)
PasteBuffer(ToLayout,290000,510000)

djopt(splitlines)
# Teardrops()

LoadFrom(Netlist,djtest.net)
SaveTo(LayoutAs,djtest.pcb)
Quit()
