No, you will not be able to use it without removing the DRM, which may or may not be illegal, depending on where you live.

I've always wondered why the publishers of these mobipocket dictionaries don't make them available directly in the Kindle Store, which has a comparative dearth of choices. I can't think of any reason why they couldn't do so given that Amazon owns both stores, so any legal issues regarding exclusivity should be easily worked out.
