Nope, they need a large water section for breeding only.

I have had mine on topsoil and a big water dish for over three years and they are doing fine. They eat regular earthwoms, and they can take night crawlers or the smaller red worms. If you have a fish bait store that sells earthworms, you have it made. I buy $5.00 worth every three months. Of course I suppose you can get earthworms delivered from the internet, but that would be more money. They will also eat crickets, which I get at my local pet store - 100 for around the same money. They don't eat that many crickets, but I also have other hungry salamanders and toads.

Just look at the cuties:
