It is not possible to buy kindle books unless you own a Kindle. That said, if you own a broken Kindle, you still own a Kindle and you can register it to your Amazon account.
And yes, you can download the ebooks to your PC from Amazon.
But you would have to remove the DRM which while a violation of the DMCA in the US is probably not a big deal if you aren't selling or uploading them. Actually, some people say that removing DRM is not illegal but giving someone a tool to do so is.
