"Edit > Duplicate"
Then click on the name of the upper track and from the drop down menu select "Make stereo track".

Note that mono tracks can be panned and you can have a mix of mono and stereo tracks in a project, so about the only real reason for having making a mono track into 2 channels is if you are wanting to apply a stereo effect.
