Seems unlikely

I doubt that a substancial amount of water would've been produced as a combustion by-product. The pressure in the air bags, while a bit higher than ambient, is still pretty low, so any water would've probably evaporated quickly. When vented to the even lower pressure of the martian atmosphere, I doubt it would've come out in anything like liquid form. It seems unlikely that the venting could've affected the soil.
