These batteries don't get lighter as they fly though do they?

I heard that airliners can't land with a full load of fuel and they have to dump it to land in an emergency. I wonder if that means you can't even replace max fuel weight with the same battery weight because then it'd be permanently too heavy to land.

I wonder if airliners could drop exhausted battery packs by parachute over designated DZs as they fly across the continent or ocean?
