You would still be required to delete the epub from the library. I don't know how fragile the process would be.
For copying books synced from Kobo into calibe, the OBOK plugin which comes as part the DeDRM package is the easiest route. It will import selected books from the ereader into calibre taking care of the renaming and/or DRM removal. It does require that the book has been downloaded to the Kobo so click on Download all from the Books view hamburger menu.
