Install the app you want then open ES File Explorer and choose App Manager and hit the multi select button at the top (It has + on it) Then select the apps you want to backup, Hit menu button then hit backup. It will backup the app into a apk file then just move that file to your Fire and install.

You will find the apk files in the backup folder on your SD Card on your phone.

I found this site that will let you download apk files directly to your PC!
This method to side load works, but the icon resolution in the carousel was pretty bad... bad enough for me to uninstall the app.
