No, because you can set up a honeypot knowing this password, and then mirror your input to the sites you visit after I collect your information.

That's possible without a password too, except that anybody in the area can MITM you instead of just people who bothered to set up honeypots. AFAIK WiFi only provides encryption on networks with a password.
