Yes, but by default you'll end up with your reading position/annotations constantly wiped. Here's what I do to avoid it:

Get KoboTouchExtended and Kobo Utilities.

In KoboTouchExtended's config, make sure to check "Do not treat replacements as new books."

Now, if you have a fanfic already on the device and there's a new chapter, you can send it to the device and it'll overwrite the old one without resetting your reading position and annotations and the like.

(Unfortunately, if the fanfic title changes, you'll likely end up with duplicate copies on device. Not much to be done about it other than manually delete the old ones.)

But the table of contents will be out-of-date. To fix this, use Kobo Utilities' "Update ToC for Selected Books."

Further questions should go in the threads for KTE and KU, respectively.
