There is no reason you shouldn't be able to read DRM titles on a Memory Stick. The Memory Stick is simply a particular physical package for flash memory used in expansion cards, as are Secure Digihtal, Compact Flash, Smart Media, and Multi Media Card. They will be formatted with the FAT filesystem, and seen as a disk by the device.

DRM is implemented in software, and doesn't care about the type of card the DRM file is stored on. Accessing the physical media is an OS function through a driver that knows how to talk to that hardware. Decoding DRM with an authorized key happens after that has occurred and the file has been read into memory.
