Hi Eric,
several people have asked me this within my organisation, and the answer is
"no" (as far as I know), because it doesn't makes sense in the general case.
JAR files are generally accompanied by metadata files (in Maven's POM format,
or Ivy's ivy.xml), and those files contain the org, name, and version of the
JAR(s). So, if you just moved the JARs with their metadata, the metadata would
be wrong. Instead, you have to re-deploy those JARs at the new location, and
delete from the old location.
I *think* it may be quicker to upload to the new location and then delete,
particularly if you're deploying with a tool like Maven which can calculate the
MD5 sum for each JAR on the client. I expect that such a tool would upload the
MD5 first, and then Artifactory would tell it that it didn't need to upload the
JAR, because it already has a matching binary. Whether that's worth worrying
about depends how many and large your JARs are, vs. your bandwidth to the
server.
You could script the process using the REST API, e.g. with curl, even if you
don't have Pro:

Subject: [Artifactory-users] Can I move assets within a given repository
We have uploaded a large group of jar files into a repository with the groupid
of org.company.external and we wanted them to be in the groupid of
com.company.external. In essence, we want to move them from ORG to COM in the
same repository. It appears that I can move them to a new repository but not
within a given repository. Is there a way I can move them within a given
repository structure? Thanks for any support. Also, we are using the freeware
version.
