Am I doing something wrong? Is it possible? And if so, how can I go about it?

It's not that Calibre can't handle the .azw file. I do the same as you, move those .azw's to Calibre and convert them for my Kobo.
The problem you are facing is DRM. You need to install the deDRM tools. Once you do that, every time you move an .azw into Calibre, the DRM will be removed and you can easily send them to your Kobo.
Before you install the drDRM, go ahead and delete any .azw's you've already added to Calibre. It removed the DRM at time of import.
