Yes they can. I've seen many toads drown in buckets and fountains or ornamental ponds when they could not escape from water that was too deep, mostly during times of drought when they're looking for a drink or dead bugs. I've also had to rescue a few from my own goldfish pond before they drowned. They just tread water until exhaustion makes them drown. The tip-off is usually the smell.
