Open shared album in photo application , hold shift key and tap first photo and then last one , all the photo will get selected .

Right click on the first photo and click on import .


Another window appears , again click on import .


All the photos will get transferred in photo folder of the photo application , even you delete photos from shared album initially if you have set up iCloud photo library and its preferences correctly see these articles https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204264

The photos will be saved on the iCloud server and photo folder , but deleted from shared folder and not as you desire delete from computer ( that is photo application ) .
