Surface sub sails away from target and misses it (but will pick up the other ship which the submerged ship won't), Target sails towards submerged sub, which picks it up on passive sonar.

Depending on weather, which effects both radar and passive sonar ranges - Yes, but both have to get into strike position ahead of the target.
This usually requires a bit of flank/full surface speeds, using up a lot of fuel.
Any target course changes can ruin the setup phase, unless the course is towards the sub.
