Normally that folder is not accessible unless the Android device has been rooted. However if the app allows backup permission (as old versions of the Kindle app do) then performing a backup of the app will make a copy of that data. And that can be used by the DeDRM plugin to retrieve the secret key used to encrypt books.

Apparently it's possible to disassemble an apk, turn on the "backup" flag and re-sign and assemble back to an installable apk. I'm pretty technical-minded, but that's beyond me.
