A transformer is an AC device in that it requires a changing current to be input in order to see an output. Attaching a 12V battery to the primary side of the transformer will generate a voltage on the secondary for a short amount of time. Once the primary current has risen to a stable level, there will be no output voltage on the secondary. There will also be voltages on the secondary and the primary when the battery is disconnected from the transformer.

A flyback transformer relies on an AC current at the primary to generate a high voltage at the secondary output. Circuitry to make changes to the primary current will be needed in addition to the battery.

Warning: removing the battery from the primary winding of the transformer is liable to generate a very high voltage across the primary coil as well as the secondary. In some cases, they can be lethal. Do not experiment with Transformers unless you are properly qualified and supervised.
