Not that I’ve heard. Will need something to turn the water pump gear.
What would be the benefit?
Apart from the point Mr Maleko makes, all that would happen is that you would get more vibration from the engine.
ALL engines are balanced, think (say) the Meriden Triumph twins but whist that will balance the reciprocating masses, it doesn't cancel out unbalanced dynamic forces.
Have a butchers here for a more detailed explanation.

The purpose of the balance shat IS to fully balance all rotating assemblies.
