Motor should be fine. Esc might be a different story. If the servo was the only thing gone, you would still power up.

Put them in a bag of rice to remove the moisture. I have dunked receivers and they quit but come back to like, but esc's are usually not the same all the time.

Before swap, you should make sure there was no parts was short circuit and wet(motor, esc, receiver, and connector between them), or it will ruin your good parts.
