I'm not sure I understand what you want - it's also not clear to me
whether this has anything to do with org-mode, but here goes:

o Forget about copying to another buffer: kill the rectangle in the
original buffer and then undo.

or:

o Mark the region, do C-0 C-M-\ to take away the indentation, M-w to
copy it to the kill ring, then undo to restore the indentation.

Does this help?
