Yes, they can. The operative word is 'can', as in ability, not preference. All turtles should be given the opportunity to get out of the water. They are cold water reptiles that need an outside heat source to warm up. I have a red-eared slider and a painted turtle. Both prefer to stay in the water 90% of the time. Occasionally they climb out, stretch out each limb under the heat lamp for a good drying out, then duck back under the water.
Answer- no you will need to put a rock in there so it can busk by the heat lamp
