Alter Table Statements

Hello Folks,

Is it possible to alter a table column , create a new column from the contents of an already existing Column..
e.g
ALTER TABLE `tb_name` ADD `new_column` VARCHAR( 250 ) FROM `tb_name` CHARACTER SET latin1 COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci NOT NULL AFTER `old_column`  but i want all the contents from the old_column to be replicated to the new_column..

Thanks in advance
