Above I have two RegEx matches in the Instance Name. Is there a way I can remember both of them in @ such that I can use them both, like I had shown before. i.e. In my usage above, @[0] refers to what got matched against ([0-9]) and @[1] refers to what got matched against ([A-Z]).

You can't do it in one step, you need to either match the entire name and then use a lisp-substring function to sub-extract,
or just use vl-cell-name. If you can't just pick off substrings you'll need to write a lisp function - see examples that use AUTO_LISP under
in the faq.

/*
 Foo AUTO_TEMPLATE(
  .OldPortName\([a-z]\)  (@"(substring vl-cell-name 3 4)"NewPortName\1@"(substring vl-cell-name 5 6)")
 );
 */
