Yes, as mentioned, the quality of the sheet music makes a huge difference in success. I use one stand-alone program that is expensive but it will only attempt to work on published music. The scanning programs I have used all require some manual correction after scanning and converting. Also, the score must be computer-printed; hand-written music rarely scans correctly.

Some of the dedicated notation programs include a scanning function, so you could take the MIDI or Music XML from that into BIAB.

BIAB does not include a scanning function but will import MIDI or Music XML. Once you have it into BIAB, use the SEQ button to break apart the channels. Then you can add other instruments as backing tracks such as percussion or strings. Or, you can change the tempo and/or the key very easily.
