Yes, I have lots of experience of this even for people who travel with me in the same and separately ticketed PNRs with GE PASSID numbers entered into the KTN field in the bookings.
We have very high PreCheck-approved rates even when the name arrangement is like yours where the passport and/or GE card has full middle name but the ticketed booking and check-in and TSA ID check were done with the DL and left out the middle name in part or whole on the booking at least (and with the DL sometimes having more letters in the name field/fields than the names entered into the name fields in the bookings).
I expect no extra PreCheck-related problems anytime soon from myself and my travel party members in separately ticketed bookings who continue to do this kind of travel a lot.
