I don't think that function is directly accessible to scripts, I'm afraid.

And the blunt instrument approach doesn't work:

mySel = app.selection[0];
mySel.duplicate();
mySel.remove();

because duplicate() can't be used on an anchored item.

So, it's cut/paste or store in a library and placeAsset as freeStanding, or export to a snippet and bring that back.
