You mean an m2 drive? Sure. If you just mean data such as files and not like a partition or moving your whole operating system then all you need to do is format the DESTINATION drive (careful not to format the source) to a file system then copy your files there.

If you want to move partitions or a whole install gparted can do that. Do be very careful when doing things like cloning disks or partitions though, especially if you're using the terminal always double and triple check your commands and the relevant disk designations are correct.
