Oh yes. Mars has both, and at least one of the recently discovered 'Hot Jupiter's' has water.
The snag is the amount and the form. On Mars the water, and there may be quite a lot, is in the form of ice, on the Xenoplanet it is in the form of vapour. And although Mars has oxygen, there are only small amounts in the atmosphere most of it is locked in the soil, in the form of rust!
So if you are asking if there is a planet with the same sort of water and oxygen we have, the answer has to be most probably, but we haven't found it yet!

There are many other solar systems that we have never seen. There may be a possibility that there is a water on another planet and maybe some life could not need oxygen but have adapted to less oxygen. There may even just be germs on other planets we dont know about. So maybe â¥

actually there is. scientist has found a planet 20 light years away that 12x10^13 miles. It's got the same climate as Earth, plus water and gravity. The Earth-like planet that could be covered in oceans and may support life because it has the right temperature to allow liquid water on its surface. the extraordinary thing is it could be all gone. what we see now is a billion years in the furture for the new planet so a civilation could of died away by now or just beginning.

look to the heavens, all those stars in the universe,then think of our sun which is also a star and ask yourself this question.of the stars in the universe,if only one percent are like our sun and each of these stars has a planet that sustains life orbiting it,and the life on these planets need water to survive how many planets have water and oxygen on them?

Not that we have found. Lots of them have water but is always either ice or steam. There is no planet we know of with lakes and oceans. And no planet we know about has oxygen in its atmosphere. That doesn't mean no such planets exist, but we have not found any yet.

With oxygen? Only if thee have life. With a sun like star, decent gravity, oceans and a nitrogen/carbon dioxide atmosphere there are millions upon millions.
Billions actually, according to Carl Sagan.

The law of averages would dictate there must be. but as yet our scientists have not discovered it.
In an infinite universe the chance that our planet is the only one that has them and can support life is a very unlikely outcome.

There are other planets with a bit of oxagen, but not enought to sustain life. I am not sure about water though.
