Yes, this did happen: https://americanmilitarynews.com/201...ear-submarine/
Quote:
An Indian Navy ballistic missile submarine whose job is to carry nuclear weapons was forced out of service for 10 months after someone reportedly failed to properly close a hatch on the submarine, which led to extensive water damage.
It was reported that the nuclear-powered INS Arihant became flooded with saltwater and suffered extensive damage.

But it also happen back in the late 1950's when the USN gave turkey an old WWII fram II submarine and they took it out for sea trials, but forgot to close the after engine room hatch. They surfaced and it is reported that they hung the sailor that forgot to close the hatch.
