My guess is that the 12v positive is not always on. Probably only on with key. having said that, you could totally re-wire the plug to be always on, and then, yes, you theoretically could rig something up to charge the car from the 7 pin.
Actually, back in my MECP days, I would have done something with relays on the other pins so you could get the 12v to only open when something else was inserted into the other pins.
ahh the good old days
