Yes. In fact, astronaut Alan Poindexter was recently killed in a jet skiing accident. The most common types of serious jet ski accidents are a collision between two jet skis or a collision between a jet ski and a person in the water (often someone who just fell off another jet ski).

Jet ski operators need to be aware of the most common types of accidents so they can avoid the conditions that make them possible. For example, a jet ski should never follow directly behind another jet ski. It's too easy to hit someone who falls off that jet ski or to ram that jet ski if it drops speed or spins suddenly.
