Not really. You have two options, possibly three:
- Calibre can start an HTTP server that can be browsed from the web
browser of the ebook reader to download books
- Calibre can email the books to your ebook reader, either manually or automatically(*)
- The web server of calibre can offer up an OPDS feed that some ebook
readers (e.g. FBReaderJ) can consume
(*) automatically may not make sense for novels, but if you have a
calibre newsfeed plugin that creates an ebook version of your
favourite web newspaper, you may want to email it to your reader as
soon as the day's edition is ready, see these for examples:
