Yes.

With great difficulty if the water is totally pure.

Much easier if there are impurities/minerals in the water.

Like gangbusters with a pinch of salt added to the water.

Not really. Pure water is not a good conducter of electricity; the only reason water conducts electricity well is because of dissolved salts and ions.

Yes, but only if it is not pure water. Pure water, that is, H2O without any other substances, does not conduct electricity.
