Hi there,
Yes a JR Pass would be a great option for this, you could either buy the 7 day JR Pass or the a Hokkaido JR Pass for this. A Hokkaido rail-pass will be the most economic option, especially the 4-day flexible pass will be well suited for your plan.
Your plan looks fine to me, the only route that may be a little long is Hakodate Asahikawa, which takes a 350minutes or 5 hours and 50 minutes. So be sure to bring a good book or plan a stop between them.
Enjoy Hokkaido!
