Yes and no, if you drink so much water you can drown yourself. Water is the best thing to drink in a diet however.
This has really only affected people such as long distance runners. What happens is you throw you Ph off balance. And then it drowns you

If you force drink gallons of water in one session, it can kill you because it does things to your electrolite balance. Drinking a gallon of water a day in 8-12 ounce glasses (16-10 glasses) will not harm you and may be required on hot days with heavy work outdoors.

Like everything else, too much of anything will kill you.
Drinking water on a regular basis is very healthy but if you drink a ton of it in certain conditions then it can be deadly.
It is called water intoxication and it can kill you.

yes, a kid down here almost died of "water poisoning" about 6 years ago. But he drank about 3 gallons in an hour.

You may feel irritating and uncomfortable but it's not harmful in real sense.
