Sort of. The process of _adsorption_ causes water molecules to bind to the
surface of some things very tightly, until they are dislodged by some outside
force, such as heat, vacuum, UV radiation or electron bombardment. (That's
where the terms "Bombarding" and "Bombarder" came from in the neon sign trade)
Operating a coil would probably release some water vapor from the surface of
the enamel if it were stored for a while, but it's hard to say if this would
really be harmful in all but the most extreme cases.
