Yes, Virginia, such a thing actually happens, and has been measured. Read through this link - http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/vibrat.html.
Is this going to be helpful to the over unity hydrolysis crowd, though? Probably not. The multiplicity of modes of vibration smears the resonant response out too far to be particularly useful - something like trying to feed energy into a tuning fork with a large number of differently-tuned arms. No one frequency is going to work.
And then there is the little matter of frequency. We notice a useful absorbance peak at 970 nm that the chemistry crowd checks to look for the presence of water vapor. Water absorbs energy at that wavelength because that is one of the principal resonant frequencies - the interaction with the water molecules takes energy from the photons and decreases the overall intensity of the received light beam. Look up atomic absorption spectrophometry to learn more.
Anyway, a 970 nm wavelength works out to a frequency on the order of 3.145 THz, or 3,145,000 MHz. This is a bit high for electronics to conviently handle. That's well above radar frequencies, in the near infra-red.
The next time you see a circuit that actually claims to split water molecules apart by exciting them in some chamber that uses off-the-shelf electronic components - well, you might want to ask for proof. This is along the same line as the proud owner of a Piper Cub claiming to have reached a speed of 2,000 knots IAS in level flight by burning gasoline blended with a secret herbal extract. Even if he has a couple of buddies who back him up on the claim (yep, got my Cessna 192 doing 1880 knots - be better as soon as I get a new prop) don't necessarily make it believable.
