No, these two sentences have different meanings.
"He is survived by his wife, Sue," means that Sue is living, and he is not.
"He survives by his wife, Sue," can be interpreted in several ways. For example, "His wife, Sue, enables his survival."
Hope this helps.

No, I think what you are trying to say is "He was saved by his wife, Sue." which means he was able to survive because of his wife, Sue.
