No, if you do everything mgmueller says they transfer your Kindle account to Amazon UK and on Amazon UK you can purchase UK books.

They do check IPs which is why mgmueller received a phone call confirming his address. Using a VPN may prevent phone calls as it looks like you did relocate.

Edit: the phone calls may be perfunctory to satisfy publisher's contracts.

Geo restrictions at least between US - UK have eased considerably.
