Yes, but you must install this mod.

Mods are not required.  The "stock" way to store several crew reports is to EVA, take the crew reports from a command pod (right click the pod and Take Data), and then put them back in the pod (right click and Store Data).

Another modless way to do it: include an Experiment Storage Unit so you can use its right-click "Collect All" function. Take a crew report, collect all, repeat. You can only store 1 copy of the same crew report.

I think some probes like HECS2 can also do "collect all" but I use so many mods that I often forget what's stock and what's coming from a mod.

Hah, I completely forgot that was a thing you could do I have had that mod installed for so long now.
So ya you can do it without mods, but it is annoying busywork and there is literally no point in not using that mod if you are on PC.

No annoying work, if you use action groups and science container (better probe control or sci container itself). Say AG1 is crew report, AG2 is collect all. All you need is press key 1 and 2.

But if you want to store multiple reports from the same situation, I think, only MP-GL lab is suitable to collect duplicates.

You can use multiple science storage containers. You want to return two copies to get all the science anyway. Jumping around on Minmus is also an nice way to get stacks of science to put in labs on various ships you send out.
