If so, I would I accomplish this?
You can't sanely use Calibre with anything other than a local drive (which includes locally connected external drives using the native file system of the OS Calibre is on, but not anything networked or MTP etc).

So you need to export from Calibre in the Container and import on the laptop. Doing a copy or one-way sync only reliable if both calibres are stopped and are the same OS and file-system.
