If your car was directly powered by coal? No. But it's more efficient (and thus less polluting) to make 1000W of power at once (for instance) than it is to have 20 generators, each producing 50W of power.
But there are still issues with the batteries and how damaging they can be to the environment.
Don't forget that coal has to be transported by diesel trucks.
