I doubt Amazon is interested in linking the two formats; it's worth noting that the newest basic Kindle model doesn't have speakers so it can't be used for TTS or audiobooks.
Audiobooks are a small niche market and many people listen to audiobooks when driving or exercising, ie. when they can't physically read a book.
Where your idea might be useful is for language learning materials specifically, but the TTS already available probably does this well enough.
