I have an older iPad (7th Gen) so I’m not sure if it’ll work or not

Thanks so much!
iPad 7th gen is the latest entry level model and it runs iPadOS 13 so it should be possible. You're gonna need this though:

As mentioned, apps that can be used as HTTP server paired with the browser on the Kobo would work, too (albeit one book at a time).

Would be so nice if/when Kobo rolls out the Dropbox sync feature to all their devices. Alas, it's only for Forma users at the moment.
