Is there any way? The functions I want to use are cosmetic / groove. I have to repeat the same sketch in some parts.

This is easy. Save the sketch as a .sec or section file by hitting the SAVE A COPY icon. Then use the DAT FROM FILE command in the sketch menu of the next sketch.

It will come in and you canscale it and rotate it. You will have to redo dimmensions and constrants.

The other way to do it is copy the features you want to use or create the skecth in a dataum curve and reference that curve in the different features. This would make the two features update together when the curve is changed. ProEpro
 
You can create that feature as a UDF.
Give proper names to all prompt so that in later stage you can place that UDF with proper reference.

Cheer..
