I have tested in my environment

You can use the below code to copy blobs from one directory to another directory in a same container in Azure Blob Storage:

using Azure.Storage.Blobs;
using Azure.Storage.Blobs.Models;
var connectionString = "StorageAccountConnectionString";
string containerName = "ContainerName";
string directory1 = "SourceDirectory";
string directory2 = "TargetDirectory";
var serviceClient = new BlobServiceClient(connectionString);
var containerClient = serviceClient.GetBlobContainerClient(containerName);
foreach (BlobItem blob in containerClient.GetBlobs())
{
    if (blob.Name.Contains(directory1))
    {
        var blobUri = containerClient.GetBlobClient(blob.Name);
        var newBlob = containerClient.GetBlobClient(blob.Name.Replace(directory1,directory2));
        newBlob.StartCopyFromUri(blobUri.Uri);
    }
}
