Yes. Tesla says keep it plugged in when not in use. You seem surprised...
I can't see keeping the car plugged in making any difference to the 12v battery. The main pack, via the DC-DC converter keeps the 12v topped up, and will come on as necessary whether the car is plugged in or not to do that. Even with the car plugged in, it does not draw any wall power at all until the main pack is down by about 2.5 kWh from the set point, and then it comes on and does a "top-up" charge.
