It is possible, although it is very rare to be allergic to water. It isn't even exactly an allergy, but has been described as one. It is a condition called 'Aquagenic urticaria' and it causes a painful reaction- sometimes a rash- when you come in contact with water. See 'related links' for an example of a case of this condition.

An allergic reaction to a banana isn't very common, but it does happen. Some people are allergic to the form of protein contained in the banana.
