Yes, but you'd have to be sure not to use the "erase all" tool during your patrol. I've also noticed as I approach a harbor upon return the escort is usually spotted anyway well before getting to the port, so one could do it that way too.
Theirs is a scripted action so if nothing else, just park outside the port and wait for them to do their patrol is the timing is off, and they're not nearby, though chances are you'll be able to see them anyway.
It's not an exact science; you don't have to be literally next to them to use them as an escort. I used the mod briefly but then realized it wasn't really needed.
