Hello,
May I use the USB port of my Airport Extreme (together with an USB cable, like the one that came with iPhone or iPad) to recharge my macbook pro?

The USB port on an AirPort Extreme is for a printer, or a hard drive.

You might note the part where Apple specifically states that the port should not be used for other uses.
I would never do this, but it is up to you to decide whether the risk is worth the reward.
