Not without stripping their DRM.
Kobo Plus does frequent handshaking over Wi-Fi as you're reading to keep tabs on how many pages have been turned. Earlier in this thread, people have pointed out that stripping the DRM from a Kobo Plus book is a form of theft. Others have posted that it's a trivial matter to strip that DRM. I've not really looked into it much myself. That's as much as I'll say publicly. As an author, I have no desire to rob somebody of their income. I read all my Kobo Plus books with Wi-Fi on from the Kobo reader.
In short, Yes, you can convert those books to generic EPUB, but in order to do it, you have to illegally strip DRM from a rental. Likely more in point to your question, if you strip the DRM in order to convert the format, you break the magic of Kobo Plus that rewards authors.
