Can I roll down the window on a power windows without putting power to the motor

Can I roll down the window on a power windows without putting power to the motor? The door is out of the car, and I need to remove the glass. My battery is dead, so it won't work to hook the wires up to it. I can charge the battery, but am looking for a quick way to manually roll the windows down right now.
Any ideas?

finding and using any 12v battery you can find is simpler than trying to disassemble the motor/regulator in the car or trying to detach the window glass from the regulator with tension on it.
