Is it possible for life to evolve on planets without water?

*By life, I mean something more complex than microorganisms. Something closer to what we have on Earth.

It is said that Titan is well outside the habitable life zone but we make the assumption that life absolutely need water to survive. Titan has lakes of methane. Could methane or other substances be used as a substitute to water? Could life prosper in a waterless environment?
