Yes, but a bad idea IMHO.

Go for an inverter to power the boiler, but use a decent one with a
reasonable output waveform and test it beforehand. Otherwise just
don't bother - set up alternative hot water supplies instead as I
doubt you'll need heating. A big insulated plastic "tea urn" cooler
can be handy here, especially if it has a tap.

A British Army "Boiling Vessel" (look it up)

Funny!
