You alreadu have moisture in the exhaust system, since one of the byproducts of combustion is water (you can see it dripping out of the exhaust pipes under the right conditions). I cannot imagine the little bit of moisture added by the DEF will make any difference, particularly since it will be a vapor in an exhaust of normal temperature.
