Yes, those are both ways of describing water. The reason for the difference, is that to an inorganic chemist, the water molecule is the combination of hydrogen and oxygen, hence hydrogen oxide, whereas to an organic chemist, the water molecule is the combination of hydrogen and the hydroxide radical (which is composed of hydrogen and oxygen).
