No. I know of no eink reader with a video out option. Just install the reader application onto the pc, and read the book that way, if you want to read it on the monitor. Or, get a tablet, if you want the backlight experience.

Edited to add: I think I got it backwards - you want video in. That would never work on an e-ink reader. Resolution, etc. would be all wrong for an e-ink screen.
