Note that the ability to select text discontinuously was introduced in Word
2002 (or perhaps Word 2003?), so it wasn't possible when you started using
Word. :-)

This is already possible. You can select discontinuous portions of a
document by selecting the first and then pressing Ctrl while selecting
others. When you have the desired portions selected, you can Copy and then
Paste.
And so you can. I've been using Word for over 15 years and didn't know
you could do that...
