No. A household receptacle is 120V. It will not work.

Why does a 20 amp breaker blow when it is only hooked up to a 100 watt bulb a small pump for a fish pond and a household freezer?
Either there is something drawing a lot more current, or the breaker is faulty. You may need to have an electrician check the breaker for you, or if you feel competent, replace the breaker with another of equal value. That would be a lot less expensive than having an electrician drop by. BUT... The startup current of a household freezer AND the "small pump" may add up to enough current that it's tripping the breaker. Read the labels and see what the actual current draw is on the pump AND on the freezer. If the total current approaches the value of the breaker it might be best to move something to a different circuit.

My heat pump was professionally wired when built in 2004. Wire is No. 4 AWG with 80 amp breaker
What size breaker do you need for a well pump?
A breaker is based on the amperage that is drawn by the pump motor load. Find the full load amperage of the motor. The wire fed from the breaker has to be rated at 125% of the motors full load amperage. The breaker for motors have to be over sized, usually 250% of the motors full load amps.
What type of circuit has double 20amp breaker going to a separate box at that separate box there is a well pump with another 20amp breaker to that?
Sounds like a 240 volt sub panel feeding a well pump.

Can you put a 20amp water pump and a 30 amp water heater on a 50amp breaker?
No, they each need their own breaker of the right amp. Neither of them would cause the breaker to trip if there was a problem.
