A battery charger does one thing. It charges a battery, and starts with whatever charge is in the battery and goes from there. Running an automobile battery down will shorten it's life.

Can rechargeable batteries be charged by a car battery charger?

It's a good idea to avoid charging any battery with a charger that was not designed specifically for that kind of battery. A car (vehicle) charger is generally designed to recharge 12 volt lead acid batteries. (The actual voltage of the battery and charge is a bit higher than 12 volts.) Rechargable battery packs come in different voltages, and many if not most are not lead acid types. A lot are nickel-cadmium or lithium types, and they need a "controlled charge" that a vehicular battery charger will not be able to provide. And that's setting aside the issue of the voltages of the battery and the charger, which is critical.It's a bad idea to attempt to recharge a battery with a charger that is not designed to recharge that "flavor" of energy storage device.
