Do differentials cause the driveshaft to spin while the tires spin? IE - would pulling a vehicle along on gas power from the front cause an electric motor attached to the rear differential to spin the entire time?

And if so, could this be used as a means of turning an alternator that charges the batteries for the electric motor.
