In a way, yes. Turtles, sliders included, that mud up during the winter will 'inhale' water into the cloaca where oxygen transfer can occur.

Do red eared sliders need a dry area?
Yes, red-eared sliders need a dry area to get out of the water. Above this area should be a turtle basking lamp. Aquatic turtles will bask daily.

Without a dry area and a basking light your turtle will not be healthy and happy.
