Only slightly, methylated spirit contains mostly ethanol. Ethanol is slightly soluable in water (mixing 50 ml of ethanol and water will make 80 - 90 ml of mixture, not 100ml). However commercial "meths" contains dye and other chemical minerals that make it toxic to drink, and are designed to make people vomit when it is drunk. these components are not water soluable.
