I'm not sure how you would run things off the truck's batteries. I assume your refrigerator gets its power from the inverter. The inverter gets its power from the camper batteries, and if it is installed properly it will be hard wired directly to the batteries with very short fat wires.
If you mean removing the camper batteries and replacing them with the truck batteries, I suggest not bothering. It might make it appear to work normally at first since the truck batteries are probably fully charged at this point, but they are not deep cycle batteries and are not really meant for RV-style power consumption. Then you may end up running those batteries down and have no 12V batteries charged strong enough to get the truck started!
