Yep, it can be done, well at least on my MY2015.
Go to Climate, either a hard button on the outside of the centre screen (on my car it is the second down on the left) or a touch screen button (mine is under "Extra Features").
Then Settings.
Then Centre Vent shows a choice of Auto or Always open, toggle it from Auto to Always open.
Even if yours is a much later model it should work either exactly the same or close to it.
Edit - whoops, got it wrong!
Yes that works to make the centre vent "always open" when Climate is "on", but I tested mine just now and as soon as I turn the ignition off the vent closes.
So I don't think there is any way to do what you want - vent open at all times even when the car is off and locked.

Odd. I too thought mine stayed open all the time, but it indeed closes when the car is turned off.
I can't believe that your F can't plow that little bit out of your way.
How much snow on the actual STREETS?
Now about 8" for a full half mile. Keep in mind, with the H&Rs, I'm jamming at least 5 of those inches into the radiator. Out comes the FJ40 with 24" of clearance.
