No, you can't when using the content server. When connected to the content server, CC won't download a second copy of a book that is already in CC's library unless you specifically ask for it in book details.
You can easily do it from calibre when using the wireless device connection. Connect, select all books with formats:mobi and ondevice:true, then use "Send specific format to device" to send the mobi format to the device.
You can also do it easily if you delete all the epubs (easiest done using wireless device connection), reorder the priority of formats in CC (settings, folders) so that mobi is above epub, then send the books. You could also do the first two steps then transfer the books in the content server.
I do suggest that before doing anything you try using K4A to see if you like how it integrates with CC. Personally I can't imagine using it as a principle reader because it offers no way for other apps such as CC to ask it to open a specific book, losing many of CC's benefits at a book organizer. Perhaps that doesn't matter to you ...
