Yes it is. You can share your addressbook among other users. You need to give 
other users the permission to access your addressbook. BTW this works for all 
other groupware objects of kolab too.

Maybe you forgot to enable "subtreesearch" in your ldap ressource?
What I have done is:
Create a new LDAP ressource to your addressbook. Enable subtreesearch in the 
lower part of the ressource configuration window.
You may want to define a searchbase if you do not want all users to be listed.
