Yes, super easy... *But*, if you're on Windows, you need to install a text editor that can save files in Unix text format. (Notepad++ is the popular go to for this.)

Plug your Kobo your computer, in Notepad++, open the .kobo\Kobo\Kobo Ereader.conf file on the device.

The file has multiple sections, with title in square brackets, [ ]

Find the [Feature Settings] section and add this line.

ExportHighlights=true

So it will look like this when you're done.

[FeatureSettings]
ExportHighlights=true
MyWords=true

Save the file. eject and unplug the kobo. I forget if you have to reboot it for this change to take effect. But now when you long press a book in your ibrary, (or open a book's ... menu), there wil be an option to Export Annotations. That will export your highlights into a text file.
