You can do it but there is no real advantage to doing so as the escort sensors will still pick you up as the seabed is flat. The way to go os slow and shallow dive. 1kt or less will stop you breaking the sub up. Also don't do it in shallow water in rough weather or you've bget bounced and cause damage.
