The date/time format used by the OP makes this difficult. Calibre cannot parse dates that are separated by periods, so the "copy" would require some rather complex template regular expressions to convert it. For example,
Code:
25.08.2017-09.10
needs to become
Code:
25/08/2017 09:10
Once that template was worked out then indeed bulk edit S/R can be used to copy the title to a date column.
