Powering USB cameras with existing DC plugs from BNC cameras?

I have a couple analog cameras at work in hard to reach places. I was hoping to snag a couple WiFi cameras to swap in because the head unit is dead and I’ve never had good luck with them anyway (probably also because my boss buys the absolute cheapest units he can find). The WiFi cameras are powered by USB and I don’t want to re-run all that cable. Is it possible to use the existing power cable running to the analog cameras to power the USB-powered ones?
