...and, now, the electrial reason why it won't work:

DC = Generator
AC = Alternator

...where are you going to get a source of AC-voltage to feed 'back' into the alternator to turn it into an AC-motor?

...with a generator, you could use the DC-voltage from the battery to "reverse" the generator into a motor; however, batteries don't "store" AC, only DC.
