No. It is absorbed through tiny pores on the surface of the leaf. These are called "stoma". The veins are for moving the tree's sap in the leaves for growth and nourishment.
Stomata
The chloroplasts in the leaves absorb the light directly from the sun. The carbon dioxide goes into the leaves through the stomata (tiny holes on the bottom of a leaf) and is diffused through the rest of the cells. The water is absorbed by the roots then carried by the xylem up to the leaf and the cells in the leaf.
Veins don't. They photosynthesise through the use of chloropyll (the stuff that makes the plant green) in the cells on the leaf.
The patten of veins on a dicot leaf are called netted veins. With netted veins, several main veins begin near the base of the leaf and radiate outward.
The Veins in the leaf
Veins
Through the stem.
The fine network of lines on the undersurface of a leaf are called Veins. The water and minerals go to every part of the leaf through these Veins.

The placement of the veins in a leaf can limit the effects of photosynthesis and transport water through the leaf and plant body. The location of the veins and the shape of the leaf are two of the factors used to determine the species of the plant.
Stomata
Water enters a plant through it's roots and stem. After it enters the roots and stem, it travels through the plants "veins."

There are many advantages of having a network of veins in a leaf, Firstly there are a strong network of veins which support the lamina. Vascular bundles (veins) are made os vessels and sieve tubes which is advantageous, becausen it allows substances to pass through the leafy system. The veins help the leaf to move water and food through the xylem and phloem tissues.
