If you are talking about water in sand on the particle level, then no. However, if you just mean in a general "looks like" sense, then some sand does have water in it. If you mean to ask if there's water inside each grain, then no, but there most likely will be water in-between sand particles. The individual sand particles themselves are not candidates to have sand in them - they are compounds mostly made up of silicon and oxygen. There is no water in them; it is around them.
