The only thing that would prevent is the state of New York breaking for the Trump-squared ticket, because the Constitution is very clear: at least one of the people on the ticket must be from a different state than the elector.

Given that, since the state of New York wouldn't break for Donald Trump even if there was absolutely no one else on the ballot, I think they're okay.

OTOH, the only thing Ivanka Trump will be running for in 2020 is a seat on the Cell Block A Entertainment Committee...so this question is a little bit silly.
