No. They have to be downloaded on each device, or syncing using cable method.

Cannot see my audiobooks on both computers When I sign into iTunes on one computer, I can see all the audiobooks I have downloaded from my local library. But when I sign into iTunes on a different computer, I do not see the downloaded audiobooks which I have backed up to the Apple cloud. And, when I use my iPad, I cannot see these books. The only two places I can see the audiobooks is the iPod and in iTunes on one of the computers. I have tried filesharing, but the book app does not show up on my list. The book app does show up on the iPad, but not the audiobooks from the library. I back up the iPod to the Apple cloud also. Questions -- How do I get to see all the downloaded audiobooks from the library on all my devices, especially the second computer? Thank you to all who answer with a solution to my issue.

OK, thank you. Surely there would be no technical constraint on syncing with iCloud across devices. Would there be some other limiting constraint?
