I have no doubt they would have used it. Balin had gone to Moria in the hope of finding the Last of the Seven, taking along a good portion of Dáin's people. Glóin was rather dismayed to learn it had been taken from Thráin by Sauron. I don't think the Dwarves ascribed many of their woes to the Seven.
