Sure you can. But consider what could happen if you did. If precision of time or speed was built into this 6-volt system, a 12-volt battery will make it work faster until something shorts or burns out.
If you need more lasting power for the 6 volt system, you should consider putting two 6-volt batteries in parallel to power your 6-volt system.

Can a 12 volt motor turn a mini alternator to charge a 12 volt battery that runs a car stereo?
Yes, a 12-volt motor can turn a mini alternator to charge a 12-volt battery used to power a car stereo. The alternator converts mechanical energy from the motor into electrical energy to charge the battery. This setup can help maintain the battery's charge while the car stereo is in use.
How do you hook up 12 volt lights to a 36 volt battery system?
To hook up 12 volt lights to a 36 volt battery system, you will need to use a voltage regulator to step down the voltage from 36 volts to 12 volts. This regulator will ensure that the lights receive the correct voltage to operate without being damaged by the higher voltage of the battery system. Be sure to consult an electrician or someone with experience in electrical work to ensure a safe and proper installation.
