Simply select them and paste.

that doesn't work with any of the paste options, it paste first row's first cell's content in all first row's cells, then second cell's content in all second row's cells and so on . . .

Try it and you'll see what I mean. I don't think you'll like the result.

Yes I have tried and as I said it paste first row's first cell's content in all first row's cells, then second cell's content in all second row's cells and so on . . .

So is there no trick to paste these same formatted rows in the same table?

If they differ, how can I open TableAutoFormat from ribbon?(I know it can be opened from "Reveal Formatting" pane)

Why would you need to do that when all those formatting commands are available on the ribbon?
