They could, but I don't know if people would like it. When you're running late for a flight it takes three minutes to drive through the (somewhat overpriced) airport gas station and throw $20 in the tank, but with an electric car that could be twenty minutes (assuming the airport had a charger available). Which means you're stuck paying Hertz to fill it for you at their crazy markup. Of course, the answer with most electric car charging questions is "charge it at home", which is great when you own the car, but when you're on a trip who knows what the hotel's infrastructure will be like.
