You can use `org-table-copy-region' and `org-table-paste-rectangle'
to copy and paste cells from a table.

Moving to cells at the same time, either up/down/left/right is not
supported, you can only move one cell or row at a time, not a region.

To select multiple cells vertically, you might also want to check
C-x SPC.
