Can we recreate old Reddit on Lemmy by just copy/paste old questions and answers and replace searches on Google eventually? (lemmy.world)

Legally? No, that would be copyright infringement, unless you tracked down the original authors and got their permission.

The copyright on all those questions and answers belongs to the people who wrote them.

Reddit has (under its ToS) a perpetual license from those people to publish that copyrighted work.

You don't.

Oopy question /paste answer is a bad idea but copy question /update answer is better.
