Nothing is 100% effecient. Try factoring 80% effeciency in and it starts getting close...
180 x .8 = 144... Getting closer than I like but if it is ok for you, then go for it!
Keep in mind that you will need a power supply that can output a bare min of 360 watts, at 14v (most hobby power supplys are putting out 14v or so) that is 25amps, but factore in the magic 80% and you get 30+ amps necessary.
I use modded server PS, that are good for 40+ amps at a little over 12v. I have 2 to serve the 4 chargers with a combined potential of 860 watts...
