Upgrade Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard to Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise is supported. We can use the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool (DISM) to do the upgrade.
First get the exact target edition ID, this can be done by running: DISM /online /Get-TargetEditions
Then, run below command to initiate an upgrade:
DISM /online /Set-Edition:<edition ID> /ProductKey:XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
