Is this possible (NRT-Yokosuka & back)

I'm returning to Japan after 11 years (and 15 years before that) but have a limited time to visit friends & old favorites.
Arrive in NRT @ 1640 on a Sunday.
My goal is to go to a favorite haunt in Yokosuka called Genji.
It's right in the little "plaza" in front of Yokosuka-Chuo station (presume it's still there) with a large aka-chochin out front. Tiny place. Good food.
So I'm figuring:
1640-1800 - customs/immigration
1800-1830 - NRT express to Tokyo
1830-1930 - Keihin Kyuko express (still called that?) to Yokosuka Chuo
1930-2130 - Genji
2130-2230 - back to Tokyo to overnight to catch Shinkansen/Express to
Hakodate the next morning - I realize I could fly but would like to see the "new" shinkansen metal and also transit the Seikan tunnel that was not completed before I left Japan originally in the 70's.
So questions:
* is this possible?
* where can I conveniently dump my luggage in Tokyo so I don't need to
lug it to yokosuka
* how can I get a phone# for Genji to see if 1) they still exist 2) they
are open sunday nite

Tks.
