Almost. With the exceptions of magazine explosions it is very rare for any surface ship to sink another one of equal size purely through flooding by shellfire. There is a fair chance that
Bismarck would have sunk due to the uncontrolled fires raging everywhere, but the scuttling and torpedoes made sure of it.
