It wouldn't even have occurred to me to translate "soul" in this sense
as {qa'}. I really think that if a Klingon wanted to convey the idea
of someone "whose thoughts, feelings, and attitudes closely match
those another; a kindred spirit", the word to use is {tova'Daq}. It's
also one of those words we don't get an opportunity to use often
enough (even less than {chaj}!).
