Yes. Funny, a sub following the planes would be exactly the opposite of what really happened.
In RL, Nautilus was detected by jap destroyers, and was forced to pull the plug. The DDs got separated from the Kido Butai, and then raced back to the carriers at high speed. DDs making high speed were detected by lost SBDs who decided they must be heading back to the fleet... Not that long afterwards, the Kido Butai was wiped out.
