No.

If Amazon decides that somebody uploaded pirated material to their store, they have the right to pull it and issue a refund. Although they don't pull the material anymore, they just politely ask you to delete it.

They aren't searching Kindles and they don't give a shit what you send to yourself. Amazon is just trying to cover their ass when it comes to their store. If they left user uploaded pirated material up on the Kindle Store, they would be opening themselves up to a massive lawsuit and the publishers/authors pulling support.
