Hi Lemonade,
That nine gallon can designed for marine is vented, and so stored within a sealed compartment it would out-gas vapors. I would recommend two bumper-mounted 5-gallon cans, so the fumes remain outside of the vehicle, and it wouldn't be too heavy to pour into your main gasoline tank. I see Jeeps with these types of tanks on the back fairly often.
On an interesting side-note, when Mason Williams wrote the song linked below, he originally entitled it
Classical Gasoline. The recording studio had the main mix level for it written on tape abbreviated as
Classical Gas., and so the name change became history.
Thanks, Eagle5
