Unfortunately from what I've read in these forums and from my own in game experiences, it is next to impossible to recreate in game that style of attack. It would be cool if you could though. It's nerve wracking enough just trying to penetrate the escort screen.
You can do it, but you had best do it pre-1941 when the merchants are unarmed. Because they will light you up otherwise.

I find that once you've gone to the trouble to penetrate the convoy it is just as easy to stay submerged. The only exception to this is in extremely poor visibility when you have to move to find targets in the soup. But then the problem is by the time you see them often you are inside torpedo arming range.
