Not possible, with most motherboards. They also need 5v and 3.3v, as well as some negative rails. Also, 12.6v is asking for trouble, and if you tried to use a car's charging voltage of 14.2v, you'd fry it instantly.

EDIT: You really need a DC-DC converter, or a DC-AC and use the normal power plug.
