Hi Lolo

I'd say both are correct, but "at moments like this" is used more often.

Either would work here as they're both prepositions. I'd use 'at' instead of 'in', because a moment in time is generally referred to be AT a specific location, and not nescessarily physically in that moment if that makes any sense at all.
