No, these compressors are too powerful to run from a cigar lighter socket. These compressors draw up to 45 Amps, the maximum for cigar lighter sockets is 10 or 15 Amps, you would blow the fuse or melt the socket and wire.
These compressors specifically need to be connected directly to the battery. It is possible to get a heavy-duty 12v plug and socket connector and leave the socket attached to the battery and easily accessible.
