require_once(PATH_t3lib . 'class.t3lib_tcemain.php');

$cmdmap = array(
	'pages' => array(
		$your_page_id => array(
			'copy' => $destinationPid,
		),
	),
);
$tce = t3lib_div::makeInstance('t3lib_TCEmain');
$tce->start(false, cmdmap);
$tce->process_cmdmap();
if (count($tce->errorLog) > 0) {
	// Handle error here
}

$destinationPid can be either positive, which means "insert as the last subpage of this page" or negative, which means "insert on the same level after the page with uid=abs($destinationPid)".
