As far as I am aware, yes.

Thank you all for the welcomes, I see why everyone says this is a great community, I have one final question what is the procedure for MultiSH4 on a steam released game, and then installation order of JSGME OM and TMO, If someone has a relevant link to answer my questions that would work perfectly. I'm kinda new to this whole modding thing and I am kinda lost so any help would be appreciated.

Not having anything from Steam, of course I can't help you with that. There are almost certainly many who can. Hopefully you'll get some help with that soon.

JSGME stands alone, but should be used after the game is installed.

The point of using Multi-SH4 is to have the different supermods contained in separate installations of Silent Hunter IV. If you do it that way you'll never have to switch between different mods, which saves you a huge amount of time and energy and minimizes the chance of game crashes every time you switch.

I tried MultiSH4 but it did not work, steam seems to not like copies of their games and made it impossible to start the game up, is there any other way that I could have both OM and TMO?

In that case, which makes sense with Steam, you just save the two game configurations with JSGME. Then when you want to switch, press the unload all button. Then press the load button and load up the other. Should be pretty painless.

You WILL have to be very careful about naming your saves to ensure that their name tells you whether you have a TMO or OM game save. Other than that you shouldn't have any issues.

Okay, I usually name my save files based off of the name of my assigned sub so that shouldn't be a problem

Btw Robbins if you're the one on youtube loved your O'Kane tutorial video, so helpful in the beginning
