For whatever reason, Kobo decided to rely on the extra Kobo spans in the WebKit renderer for position management, so that isn't possible. You can simply rename your book to book.kepub.epub, and it will load in the WebKit engine, but things like bookmarks and highlights won't work, because your book is missing the extra Kobo spans. I just run all my books through kepubify before I transfer them to remedy this.
