No not completely but drip irrigation drastically cuts the amount of water needed, low-pressure sprinklers are an improvement, and even building simple earth walls to trap rainfall is helpful.

Desalination makes sea water available, but takes huge quantities of energy and leaves vast amounts of brine.
