Yes, Vasil's idea should work. There is a Trigger when form is submitted, that you can then have a Team action to post a message in a channel. These used to not trigger alerts however so you might have to test it out.
The work around and might even be better here in this situation if you want this recognition to show in more than at the same time is have the flow instead trigger to a webhook.

Here is old blog to get started the webhook method. I'd try flow first, it's the easiest, but if you need notifications or more than one team to get these then use the webhook method: https://davidlozzi.com/2018/03/01/posting-to-teams-incoming-webhook-verses-teams-post-message-in-flow/
