The answer to your question is yes, but it would be incredibly slow. Using a charger like the # CTEK56353 would take days to charge your 2 batteries. Instead, you want something like the NOCO GeniusPro Smart Battery Charger # NOC37FR. This has a maximum charging amperage of 25 amps and will charge your batteries in hours instead of days.
