Is there a way to transfer some photos/videos from Google Drive to Google Photos (same account) without the need to download all the files and then uploading them again?

You can try enabling in Drive settings - "Automatically put you Google Photos into a folder in My Drive". This will show Google Photos folder. Try copying there some photos and check a bit later if they will be shown in Google Photos. Can't promise though :)
