No, they are dead. Most of them looked knocked out when they went into the water. If they are unconscious, they won't know not to breathe, lowering their ghost of a ghost of a chance of making it to the surface to absolute zero. Also, I'm surprised the pressure didn't crush them like grapes. Also, if it's cold enough, they could get hypothermia. So, unconscious, tens of thousands of feet down, possibly have hypothermia, and can't breathe. Not to mention the kraken's tentacle probably killed a couple of them. I'd say they are as good as dead, if not dead already.
