I want to use the remote in a remote control car to power something, and I was wondering if I were to take off one of the motors, and switch it with a voltage generator, would the remote be able to switch on the generator when i press the throttle for the car?

Think some of the words in your question do not have the meaning you think they have, or, your sentence was somehow garbled by autocorrect.

Could you just tell us what end result you are hoping to achieve.
E.g.
- Press button on Toy remote controller
- motor turns on on car (several feet away)
- motor causes a switch to connect on bigger system
- bigger system stays on until I hit reverse on remote.

Sorry, i just got this stupid "autocorrect" like extension for google chrome and its been makking my sentences and word phrasing weird.

Well, anyway, i want to power a high voltage generator transformer remotely, without the use of a relay switch. What i had in mind was switching the motor of an RC car, with the high voltage generator. Im assuming that if i do this; when i power the car, it would actually power the high voltage generator. Is this possible?

Whether or not a relay (or alternative switching device) would be needed would depend on the control characteristics of the mystery HV generator.
