Yes I have.
The area where I live (netherlands) is probably the most densily bicycle owned country in the world (so a bicycle tyre pump is here one of the most common household things )
Obviously if you have shop air you use that, but in an emergency its doable and faster than one of those cheap mini 12v compressors as I wrote (but that doesnt cost any physical energy of course so that has its plus too ).
Having a good quality bicycle pump helps. dual cylinder footpumps ftw.
