Not really, in avatar they move the elements without exerting force on them. It isn’t basic air bending as splashing water isn’t basic water bending, throwing rocks isn’t earth bending and lighting a fire isn’t fire bending.

I've been wondering. If water benders can control the temperature of the water...

Can airbenders blast superheated air in people's faces?

Why can't water benders do a faux air bending with the moisture in the air

I don’t see why not. Skilled earth benders can lava bend by basically vibrating the earth molecules so fast to generate high temperatures turning it into lava. I suppose air benders can vibrate air molecules the same way.
