Electric boot release but battery flat

[Nich]

Either open the bonnet and connect a battery up to the terminals or lower the seat back and pull the internal boot release.

I cant get in to the boot due to my size so, if I connect my battery charger to the red wire going to the fuse box and the car chassis / engine block, would that be suitable, do you think ?
