no. It can overheat the battery, damaging it.

Here is a separate answer: I just charged a 12v car battery using a 110v DC Welder set on 10 amps, and putting out 50v. I had to check the battery every 30 minutes for overheating, which it did not. I know this is not recommended as I risk damaging the car's electrical system and the battery, but I was in a pinch.

I only charged it for 1.5 hours, and there is a substantial risk that the battery will explode. I disconnected the terminals at the welder to avoid igniting the hydrogen that forms around the battery during the process.

Other risks include overcharging the battery because chargers designed for 12v drop to a trickle when the battery is fully charged, avoiding damage to the battery.

Yes as long as it is the right voltage: a 6v battery needs a 6v charger; a 12v battery needs a 12v charger. <><><> If you can set the battery charger's output to give either a 6 or a 12 volt output, then you must always remember to set it to 6 volts if you want to use it to charge a 6 volt motorcycle car battery.
