Do submarines count? If so, then yes.
An important detail of the battle of midway was the Japanese didn’t think the American carriers were present. If they knew from the get go then the out come very likely would’ve been different. I.e. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Santa_Cruz_Isl...
In the game, the Japanese would not be surprised.
I think the concept could work. Just choose a different battle. :)
