With Nook and Kindle is it possible to download and store copies of DRM'ed ebooks that can be deDRM'ed at any future date.

But at that point you're really just splitting hairs.
The basic facts are that removing DRM is technically illegal in most locations and that doing it verges on the trivial.
Everything else is just debating ethics and varying degrees of rationalization.

Either you're comfortable doing it or you're not.
The legal liability issue is a moot point either way.

It is a strictly apersonal matter in the end.
