no the seal is broken. there are little drilling kits that cut a hole in the glass and let the moisture out (window breaths). but really you have to get new sealed panes.
the air that got in when the seal failed causes the condensation as double glazed widows have an inert gas in them.

or are you taling abot storm window double panes where they are 2 seperate windows?
the outer pane should not be sealed tight to the weather as it needs to breath a little bit. the moisture comes out from the living space and gets trapped in that colder space and condences with no way out.
