Is it possible to install onedrive on most ereaders?

No. You can't install apps on most eReaders; they are dedicated reading devices.

With Kindle, you CAN "sort of" emulate that level integration if you want to store your eBooks online in you own account. You can select a compatible eBook stored in your personal online account and email it to the personal Amazon email account that gets set up when you register your Kindle. That is one of the mechanisms that allows you to load non Amazon sold books to your Kindle.

It's only problematic in that you need an email equipped device (phone, Tablet, PC or Mac) to perform the email.

The book gets downloaded the next time you 'sync' your kindle.

I have both OneDrive and Amazon Drive accounts and both support email. I'm assuming other online drive services have similar email capabilities. It has been years since I've used Kobo, so I don't know if their bookstore supports that sort of thing for its users.
