Sure can, Shel. I do it all the time, as the Mobipocket Desktop Reader is my weapon of choice for my PC-so I convert 'near everything into MOBI for the PC, and then a quick FB2 conversion to read on my Nokia 770 while I'm on the go.

BookDesigner (available elsewhere on this fine site) makes it all very easy. Of course, we're talking about non-DRM books here
