According to this https://kdp.amazon.com/help?topicId=A2GF0UFHIYG9VQ you can do it as PDF but they almost always have conversion issues. Also a few authors I know who publish on Amazon have told me not to bother trying it for the same reason.
ePUB is also one of the supported formats but we would want to test it using Kindle Gen first to ensure there were no conversion issues. https://kdp.amazon.com/help?topicId=A3IWA2TQYMZ5J6#kindlegen
