Potentially if the plant is a really deep rooter with very sharp, and strong, roots. Most aquatic plants don't fit that bill. The only aquatic plant I can think of that would be an issue might be cyprus, mangroves, or a bamboo if you put that in there.
Most plants just don't have strong enough roots. Most of your plants are grown for years in really flimsy pots. some of those pots are weaker then even thin vinyl. Many trees and shrubs are grown in burlap bags and they don't usually work their roots out of that for many many years. I wouldn't worry to much about it. Unless you want to put some trees in there.
All of this is based on what I know from growing plants in pots and in the garden over many years.
