Depending on the relative size of your hybrid and your motor home, yes: there is nothing different about a hybrid v. ordinary car that stops it being towed with its front wheels off the ground.

Is hybrid electricity renewable or nonrenewable?

Hybrid electricity produced in a hybrid car like a Prius is generated from a small gasoline motor. When you use any electricity to run a motor you use it up. It is not renewable. Renewable means it comes back by itself, like sunshine or wind or waves on the beach. All these are renewable and can be used to generate electricity. But all electricity is non-renewable.
