In short, no.
What you're doing is actually a violation of the terms and could result in the account being disabled or even deleted. Dropbox accounts are meant for individuals and should not be shared like that. One person should not be using someone else's account to sign in.
If you need access to files within the account, you should have your own account and the owner can share the files with you. Or, if it's a Business team account, they can invite you to join the team, in which case your account would be merged into the team and use one of their licenses.
