There are several custom script solution for this, such as:
- https://github.com/sky-chaser-high/adobe-illustrator-scripts#stepAndRepeat
- https://github.com/hendraanggrian/prepress-adobe-scripts/blob/main/Illustrator%20Scripts/Objects/Step%20and%20Repeat....jsx
- https://github.com/dumbm1/ai_scripts/blob/master/autors/OlegButrin/StepRepeat.jsx
- https://sites.google.com/site/dtpscripting/illustrator-scripts/stepandcopyai
Which means the demand is here. -

This is already in Illustrator.
Shift+Cmd+M will give you the Transform tool. Then you just type in the distance you want to step. (horizontally and/or vertically)
Though it would be nice if you could enter in a field how many times you want it to step. :)
