Sure, eg. <Esc>t (tag thread) followed by ;C (copy tagged), then give

Discussions on this list, for example, frequently make reference to
some feature of the headers of someone's posts, often for reasons like
pointing out misconfiguration. It would be handy to have a variant on
the "include message in reply?" option that allowed the inclusion of
the headers as well as the message body for purposes of geeky
nitpicking.
