This cannot be used as an oil fryer can it?

Yes that is it and I do not believe it can be used as an oil fryer.

I will let you know

Interesting question, however, I do not know the answer.
Bentley:
I guess the big difference would be that the sous vide is under vacuum, so you are not worried about exposer to air at the low temperatures. If you are vacuum sealing in the air cook also, I am not smart enough to know if 125° air cooks with the same principles as 125° water. Does the air pressure and water pressure act differently with heat. Very interesting premise!

I think that the big difference would be thermal conductivity and density. Water's thermal conductivity is higher than air's (0.6 vs 0.025 W/(m·K), meaning that the meat would cook much faster with circulating water vs. air.
