ABSOLUTELY NOT. Renaming an epub as a kepub is not enough. If you do that, the simplest problem is that the reading position won't be kept properly. If you close and reopen book, the best it will do is get back to the start of the chapter you were up to.

And if calibre did that, what would all the people who think that the kepub renderer is worse than the epub renderer do?

If you want to download books as kepub, convert them in calibre using the Kepub Output plugin.
