@OP: Torpedoes ran on either magnetic fuse or impact fuse in WW2, there may have been ways to blow them up early but nothing used in an attack. This doesn't have a use nor a historical basis so no. Although i think they can do it with the modern torpedoes.
yes , yes some examples
Barham was hit by three torpedoes from the German submarine u331
three torpedoes hit HMS Royal Oak (08) u47
Repulse three torps (Aerial)
Prince of wales 1+3 (Aerial) but the first one, crippled the ship
The examples of yamato, mushashi and shinano are bad examples
you forgot, for you own reason the bombs reach the battleships, and the attack of shinano was a 1400 yards with a complete salvo of six
And over fuses i recommend you read the book "Submarine" by Edward L Beach
he explains effects of early detonations, normally do nothing to attacked ships
another examples kitakami launch 120 torps (in the game we can load 150) at "Iron Bottom" only one hit that night, 119 not explode at end's run (in the game all torpedo explode)
