No. Distilled water is completely devoid of the essential minerals fish need for long term health. That's what the distilling process does, it makes the water pure. Mains tap water is usually perfectly fine for fish provided it's got dechlorinator in it (to remove harmful chlorine/chloramine and heavy metals).
Also, they're called Siamese Fighting Fish, not Japanese, they originate from Thailand, old Siam, not Japan! But it's more professional to call them Bettas!
