However, if the air humdity is high enough, then it is possible for the pressure drop in the venturi to be sufficient to condense the moisture in the air and so form droplets?
Yes absolutely. But heating the air first (with partial carb heat) can only reduce the amount of water that condenses as (supercooled) droplets.
