Well, I am not an electrical engineer, but I'm fairly certain you'd need an equivalent or greater voltage in the charger than you have in the batteries. Voltage is just a measure of potential, so current would want to go from the batteries back to the charger in your case. Right?

ETA: Think of it like trying to pour water into your bathroom sink to fill up the elevated water tank across the street.
