Yes. Kindle OS is closed and Calibre cannot access it. Unless the Kindle is jailbroken, which isn't possible to do with the recent firmware versions.

The same with Nooks, unless rooted.

That's also the reason you can't patch and hack non-jailbroken/unrooted Kindles and Nooks, or install alternate readers on them (e.g. KOReader).
