My assumption is the "Kindle library" the OP refers to is in the Amazon Cloud.
I was referring to writing programs in general, facetiously, not the question in hand.
Yes, the content you see logged into your Amazon account using a browser. It wouldn't be impossible to automate the multiple downloads, but certainly very very difficult. Series of menus, buttons, radio buttons (even if only one Kindle registered) and loads of javascript. You can't even get the ebook listing all on one web page. I'm sure it's deliberate that you can only do one at a time and it needs multiple finger taps or mouse clicks on different things and positions on the screen.

After it's downloaded it can all be automatically deDRMed and imported to Calibre in one go.

An amazon server or network of them. Cloud is marketing speak.
