If they are not in AMR, yes.
If they are, don't bother.

"Copy over" as in dumping to ADF or copy over the disks with other content?

Maybe copy something else entirely while holding it "over the cover disks"

Easiest way I think is to go to http://amr.abime.net/magazines and locate the magazine which disks you have, then follow the link and select "Cover disk index" for that magazine to see all cover disks indexed. Those missing a download link (or not indexed) are not available and would be nice to get preserved.
