One way to do it would be to create a group using a single file backend,
process mark the articles like you did and "B c" the articles to the new
group.

I haven't done this from an nnir result buffer, and haven't done it with
a single file backend as a target.

But I have done it (ages ago), copying from nntp to nnimap and nnml, and
(more recently) from nnimap to nnimap (both with the same server and
between two different servers).
