You would probably end up with the same condensation issues there then. Unless the system is build differently to start with to consider that, but at that point you are replacing the entire system anyway.
There’s a condenser pipe that goes to a hole in the foundation for the water that condenses off the coils. All heat pumps are also air conditioners. The defining feature of a heat pump whether ground sources or air sources is the reversing valve that lets them operate for air conditioning or heat. Air conditioners are heat pumps without the reversing valve so they only cool.
Like it’s not humid in the American South?
There are cities in Florida with an average humidity of 89%. The British go nuts when the humidity goes above 70% for a few weeks a year.

??? All are built, and have always been built assuming condensation.
If heat pumps work fine in 90% humidity, 70% isn’t a problem.
For air to water systems? Honestly haven’t heard of any that do cooling.
