When you don't move, it's not possible FAIK.
I'm afraid this is incorrect.

What the OP is referring to is called an international consolidation. It's allowed once per year and transfers the points at the current exchange rate. I do this once per year from my Aussie accounts to my US accounts and same from my UK accounts (although admittedly less than once a year ).
