There were divers off the coast and noticed only that they seemed to be 'bounced' up and down as the wave went by.

Is it possible to hear sounds underwater while diving?

Not sure about diving with an oxygen tank, but from trying that in the deep end of a swimming pool, yes, it is possible to hear muffled sounds.
