I've haven't tried it myself but I believe you can using Calibre or other DRM stripping tools.

There is a DeDRM plugin for Calibre but it doesn't work very well on Amazon's KFX format. People get around that by getting Amazon to deliver the book in an older format but then you lose the typography improvements that come with KFX.

It feels like this is the beginning of the end for ebook DRM stripping.
