Sorry, Wolfie:
What are you asking, sweetie? Your sentence is confusing me a bit.
If you're asking, is there a way to upload a coffee table book, with embedded fonts for the Kindlebook (KF8), yes, of course. But I'm not clear on what you mean where you say "need a custom font in MOBI." Mobi--the KF7 format, in other words--doesn't/cannot display embedded fonts. So, if that part is the gist, the answer is no. If for Kindlebook solely (KF8, including FXL), then the answer is yes.
When you ask "allow you to keep the font for use in KF8," are you referring to the font-stripping issue at the KDP? If that's your question, yes if you know what you're doing and have developed/found a workaround, and no if someone is, say, uploading from Word, or a PDF, etc. The typical answer when more-complex formatting questions are posed. XHTML and CSS can overcome a host of formatting challenges.
