I've heard rumours that that was once the case, but I don't think it
is now.  Select the lake outline, use "add to relation" --> "new
relation" --> "advanced" --> "multipolygon" (in Potlatch, I don't know
JOSM) and close the "add to relation" box, set the role to "outer",
then select the island outline, do "add to relation", choose the
multipolygon you've just created, and set the role to "inner".
