Yes, Volcano's can in fact explode underwater most of the time it will depend on how far down the volcano is from the surface. Volcano's that are submerged can erupt when there is an Earthquake underwater. Most of the time the lava won't come up to the surface water seeing as the water would cool the lava and or magma causing it to sink down in to the water.
