No, it won't work. You could however push it straight through the DI vessels.

It'd be expensive in resin,..

If you can't have a static setup at home with the RO, then you will need a much bigger one in the van. A merlin at the very least, but a 4040 would be better. This way you can fill your tank in a couple of hours.
