If I plug something into the wall outlet and it doesn't matter which way the plug goes in, will it matter how I connect wires if I power the device from another device's power cord?

itβs always best to put a metal object such as a knife in the outlet to test it first

could you state a little more explicitly exactly what u r trying 2 do

Probably not - but it can do. US outlets are a little scary.

An oven in north america would require 2 hots of different phases as well as a common grounded conductor (the white). You can switch the hots around with each other but if you accidentally switched a hot with the white wire you could create a line to line short and start a fire.
A fridge shouldn't matter. It gets 1 hot and 1 identified and as long as it is alternating current it really shouldn't make a difference if they were switched.
I do recommend looking at the schematics first to make sure doing so wouldn't damage any sensitive electronics, as some modern fridges do have them, touch screens and such.
Why do you even need to be doing this? Are you unable to hire a professional?

I just want to hook a rPI zero up inside of a oven in my hotel room.
Come on guys. Let's get on it. Let make it happen!

Let's go!

I'm try to power a Raspberry Pi Zero from either an oven, microwave, television, alarm clock, or other household object, from within the object, using the objects power.
Seems pretty normal to me.

you can use peltier plates to generate power to run the device while the oven is operating

Why don't you just buy a plug and plug it into an outlet?
This information may help:
On a standard 120 volt 3 prong outlet, the odd round part is the equipment ground. It will be the green wire. It is a safety and is not required for the equipment to operate. It can, however, save you from being electrocuted if the equipment metal housing somehow gets electrified.
One of the two flat holes is a little bigger than the other. That will be the neutral wire and colored white.
The smaller flat hole is your power and will have a black wire.
Further, if the smaller slot doesn't have a 90 degree slot coming off of it, it is a 15 amp outlet. If it has the 90 degree slot, it is a 20 amp outlet.
