The shuttle suits should have had built in chutes. The reality is they probably survived all the way down.
During reentry the have helmets and visors on the suit is pressurized, and if they also have oxygen well there is a non-0 chance they could survive. the atmosphere is thin up there. No idea the speeds they have but there are cases of supersonic high altitude planes disintegrating and the pilot survives.
