Unlikely. Happens the other way all the time, but that’s usually because of a medical issues that causes the person to fail a submarine or nuclear physical. I’ve never seen some goes from surface to submarines. Are they a nuke SWO? How far along are they in their career?

Yes, it is possible to transfer from being a Surface Warfare Officer to a Submarine Officer in the Navy. I have seen this happen a few times in my time in the Navy. My good friend made the switch and is now a proud Submarine Officer!
