You can, but being surrounded by working truckers, some of whom do not appreciate RVers using their pumps, can be an unwelcome feeling.
Those pumps are high volume and pressure, so be darn careful.
I've never gotten a hint of unwelcomeness at truck stops. Heck, I have had truckers come ask me about my truck, camper and how it pulls.
That said- I do try to adhere to their etiquette and first and foremost- that is, fill up and pull up before doing anything else. Go in and pay, don't dwaddle. If you need to be there for much more than that, go park and go about your business.
I've used truck stops for both filling up and hitting the weigh station scales during the day and at night (have never stayed overnight). I've never had a inkling of unpleasantries.
