Under absolutely ideal conditions, a Tesla on a 250kW charger for 8.5 minutes can regain 40% of battery capacity [1]
So, if you carry 2.5x the battery you need, so a 40% charge is all you ever need, then maybe? Although obviously, that would add to your weight, reducing your range.
If you were willing to hook up a supply of cooling water while charging, you might be able to do somewhat better - one of the key limiting factors in fast charging is the batteries heating up.
