Yes, they could, although probably not as deep as 30m. The closer the sub was to the transmitter, the deeper it could be. Check here:

I recall an active USN officer posting on the SH4 forum that fleet boats could receive radio messages at a depth of about 60 feet. That's consistent and an independent source. Unfortunately, I can't find a link to the post.
