A peninsula is a region of land surrounded by water on at least three of four sides and connected to a larger piece of land. A sea is a body of water, and thus cannot be called a peninsula.
However, seas are usually surrounded by land on three sides, sometimes almost completely surrounded by land, which does make them seem like a water version of a peninsula. There are also inland bodies of water called seas, such as the Dead Sea or Caspian Sea, but these are technically saltwater lakes.
