Yes it has kindlegen and can export MOBI. The new CLI will even produce MOBI if the conversion to KPF fails.

It is just my supposition that in the long run Amazon will want publishers to run their books through the Previewer and publish using KPF instead of using kindlegen and MOBI.

It is just a guess at where they are headed and may never happen.
