No.  A DVD must be specially formatted for your player to read it.
Ignoring the possibility of your player "not liking" your burned DVDs,
making a copy with K3B should be easy as pie.

I checked my K3B which is version 0.11.14.  Open it and look to the
menus at the top.  Click Tools->DVD->Copy DVD... and just use the
defaults in the dialog.  That should be it.
