As the sub goes deeper, the hull compresses a bit, but this does not affect air pressure inside much.
Air pressure in the sub is more affected by equipment that vents air into the space as part of it's operation, and by the oxygen bleed system that keeps the oxygen level at a constant level.
Charging the air banks with air from the air compressors makes air pressure in the sub drop.

Submarines would have to maintain a constant pressure, or the crew would need decompression when the sub surfaces.

You can tell the difference as you go deeper. we have tied a string from one side of the boat to the other side while we were surfaced. As we dove deeper, you could actually see the string starting to sag. Remember 44psi for every 100 feet.
To actually answer your question though, no you can not tell any difference physicaly.
