No. Once a water heater tank leaks there is no fixing it. Just replacing the water heater. And it should probably done as soon as possible, since the potential for a bigger leak to open is very possible.

Can you have too much water pressure in a residential house requiring a pressure release valve?

The water pressure in my house is about 140PSI. Which is definitely dangerous. It happens more often than you would think. What happens is a city will use water supply lines which are too small for the water requirements. Therefore, they have to increase the pressure. You wouldn't want a pressure relief valve, because then if the pressure was too high, it would just spray water everywhere to release the pressure. You would want a pressure regulator installed, which is what I am working on for my house right now. Just to let you know though, you may have to get a thermal expansion tank for your water heater if you don't have one. See, the new pressure regulators have a check valve in them, which prevents water from traveling back into the city pipes once it has gotten into your house. When your water heater heats the water, the air bubbles in it expand, which increases the water pressure, and will probably cause your pressure relief valve on your water heater to blow. You can get a cheap water pressure meter at any improvement store to check it out. 50-60 PSI is ok. I would say you could take it up to 70 or 80 PSI safely.

Why do you run out of hot water after 10 minute shower?

You run out hot water because you must have a small water heater. A water heater gets water, and heats it up, so if you have a small one, then once you use up all the hot water, you need to wait a while for the heater to heat up more.
