There a kepub output plugin you can install to Calibre to 'convert' your epubs into Kepub, and have them neatly kept in the same Calibre database,, but there is a *huge* caveat here. Ebooks processed this way, by the design of the of the Calibre software, has to go through Calibre's 'anything to html to ebook' conversion process. That *will* make changes to the books, and unless you are very familiar with the default settings, can make a mess of things.
Alternatively, there is a stand-alone utility to batch convert epubs to Kepubs. Ufortunately, I don't know of an easy way to automatically re-integrate them with Calbire database for easy loading to device.
Keeping a copy of the Kepubs can make things faster if you find yourself sending large batches of books to a Kobo device, but considering the hassle involved, I think Jwolf's advice is best.. don't bother. (Unless, you have e-book conversion settings you want applied only to Kepubs but not your epub copies.)
