In addition to the previous answers you can also define your own function to duplicate a line. For example, putting the following in your .emacs file will make C-d duplicate the current line.

(defun duplicate-line()
  (interactive)
  (move-beginning-of-line 1)
  (kill-line)
  (yank)
  (open-line 1)
  (next-line 1)
  (yank)
)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-d") 'duplicate-line)
