No, for freely fall container the resultant acceleration of gravity is zero and hence buoyant force $m_{\mathrm{o}} g$ becomes zero.

A cubical block of density $\rho $ is floating on the surface of water. Out of its height $\mathrm{L}$, fraction $\mathrm{x}$ is submerged in water. The vessel is in an elevator accelerating upward with acceleration $\mathrm{a}$. What is the fraction immersed ?

A drinking straw is dipped in a pan of water to depth d from the surface (see figure below). Now water is sucked into it up to an initial height $h_0$ and then left to oscillate. As a result, its height $y$ from the surface of the water varies periodically. Ignoring damping, the equation for $y$ is ( $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity):
