Not without illegal practice*, I guess.

* By use of Calibre and other software solutions it would be practically possible to strip ebooks of DRM and upload them to other ereaders, but that would only be legal for non copyrighted books.

It might be possible to 'lend' accountcredentials to niece/nephews, but possibly not preferable. With the Kobo-store, that seems to be non-legal too (see thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=193879).
