I've just tested it.
Skipjack, '68. 20 knots, full right rudder, full planes up, full ballast up. Fired a Mk37 on a port beam - no damage at all. The torpedo cleared the tube and immediately turned left.
I'm not saying it's a safe thing to do. I'm just answering to OP that firing at or below 20 knots won't damage your tubes, no matter what's your rudder/planes settings.
