Can I use the Winterize Inlet to fill my Fresh Water Tank from a container of fresh water?

I was staying at a county park campground which did not have water or sewer hookups. I have a couple of 7-gallon Reliance Aquatainers and was wondering different ways to fill my fresh water tank with these. I was thinking of using a Drill Pump attachment to my drill or buying a transfer pump.

Then it dawned on me -- Based @rohrmann (Bob & Becky) schematic they drew earlier, I should be able to use the Winterize Inlet to fill the Fresh Water Tank from the 7-gallon Aquatainer containers, couldn't I?

To fill the Fresh Water Tank from a water container:
  1. Connect a drinking water hose to Winterize Inlet and put other end of hose in 7-gallon water container
  2. Water Heater By-Pass switch = ON / OFF
  3. Winterize switch = ON / OFF
  4. Tank Fill Power Fresh switch = NORMAL FLOW / FILL
So when I turn on the electric pump from the control panel inside the RV, shouldn't that pump water from the 7-gallon jug and fill the Fresh Water Tank?

Would this work?
