HIV is transmitted through bodily fluids, therefore, if you share a needle and there is any trace of contaminated blood or other bodily fluid left on the syringe from the previous user, you could contract HIV.

Can semen mixed with water transmit HIV?

no hiv virus is very fragil, must have direct contact with mucus membrane, once exposed to air it weakens considerably, the chlorine in water would kill it. If you drink it, no. If you insert it vaginally, maybe. No it cannot transmit HIV. When semen mixes with water the hydrogen bonds weaken because of the pylase in human sperm. This combined with the proteins in the HIV virus neutralize the possibility of transferring HIV through water consumption.
