AA lithium batteries contain far less energy than a dedicated lithium battery pack. My Nikon DSLR has an accessory allowing the use of 8 AA batteries in its external battery grip in place of the standard battery pack, but they last a fraction of the time that the proper battery pack does.

Note that you can get emergency chargers that will charge a device through its USB port from AA batteries, eg this.
