I think using REST API it will be possible:

How to copy widget to another dashboard:

  1. Get dashboards id (parameter id:)
    GET /api/dashboard

  2. Get dashboard, check widget id you want to copy:
    GET /api/dashboards/{dashboardId}

  3. Get widget parameters:
    GET /api/dashboards/{old_dashboardId}/widgets/{widgetId}

  4. Copy widget parameters, remove row with id:, so api could generate new id for widget:
    PUT /api/dashboards/{new_dashboardId}/widgets

Best will be to create script, or you can still use API browser if you want to copy small amount of widgets:
