You can, but understand that KU titles are quite different from the titles you'll find at Audible. KU is mostly indie stuff, whereas Audible is more mainstream. Also, Audible has over 150,000 titles compared to KU's meager 2,100 titles. Before deciding, have a look at the selection available in KU (link below) and see if it's something you'd enjoy.

Other factors to consider are other sources for inexpensive and free audiobooks - public libraries, Audible Daily Deals, Whispersync titles, etc. Also, Tantor is having a 1-day Labor Day Sale of their entire catalog (~2,700 titles) for $4.99 each.
