Would lack of pressure (for example standing partly submerged in water) relieve a patient with plantar fasciitis?

No: Plantar fasciitis can be a very agonizing and chronic issue. It's very common. It is pain worse following rest like when you get up in the morning or after sitting in a chair for a while. Consult your local podiatrist, cortizone (hydrocortisone) injections will allow you to walk out pain-free. But there are many options. Quit living in pain.
