No, you still die, because a viscous and therefor slow-moving liquid physically can’t remove CO2 fast enough from your lungs. Otherwise we’d have lots of premature babies hanging out in jars.
Unfortunately, in humans CO2 is the thing that gives the “suffocating” feeling, and it takes a long time to actually kill you at modest levels, so that description still applies a bit.
Like waterboarding yourself whilst never dying
