Yes, all the time
A lot of the books I've bought from Waterstones have no covers, and I like to have proper covers. So I strip DRM and bring them into Calibre for cover adding and any corrections I find as I'm reading (I have a little black book where I'll make a note if I find anything out of whack which I'll go back to in the html later and fix.)
