Short answer: always use the appropriate tool Relational databases and document stores have different uses and purposes. Using a document store like a relational database (eg, with an ORM (emphasis on the R)) is a bad idea, and using a relational database as a document store is similarly foolish.
Work out what questions you want to ask of your data, then structure the data in a way that allows you to query it efficiently. If the format desired is a document store, I wouldn't attempt to shoehorn that in to an ORM wrapper, I'd use something like mongothon.
