From the source page, choose File > Copy. On the destination page choose File > Paste in Place. If you have facing pages, it will be on the same side on the spread.

Can't check right now, but I'm pretty sure, that if you set (0,0) origin to Page - instead of Spread - then it will paste correctly on the right pages as well - and, just in case, shortcut on PC is Ctrl+Shift+Alt+V.

Just tried that. Sadly, it doesn't. It will still only paste on the side of the spread it was copied from.
