No, a land plant seed falling into the ocean would normally be killed by the salt in the sea. However certain land plants do use the Ocean to spread their seeds to other bits of land across the ocean. These seeds float and examples of this are the coconut palm, the mangrove and the coco de mer.

Seaweed is a plant that has evolved to live in salt water and they do not produce seeds, some can multiply by breaking bits of themselves off and these bits grow and some reproduce by producing haploid and diploid sporophytes.

How does ocean life affect ocean currents?

It's more likely the other way around. Ocean currents affect ocean life.

It's also possible that some "seaweed forests" slow the movement of currents.
