There's not a built-in user interface for changing group memberships for
multiple accounts at once, but you could do it manually in the database
something like this:

INSERT INTO user_groups (ug_user,ug_group)
SELECT user_id, 'target_group' FROM user
WHERE user_name IN ('First username', 'Second username', 'Third username');
