Yes. Puerto Rico is treated exactly as if it were a state and and all US states and territories honor each other's warrants and trequests for extradition.

If have NY ticket on Ontario CA license then switched to NJ license Can one be tracked down and suspended?

Chances are it will be slow to track you down, long as you stay out of trouble. Try and pay it off soon because it will turn into a warrant. If you ever get pulled over, be forwarned that it will show that you have a warrant, and you may get arrested as well as your car impounded. Remember, police will not know what kind of warrant. Any kind of warrant. They will just put you in jail. No question ask.

A "Bench Warrant" is a warrant for arrest issued directly by a court. All court systems in the US grant receprocity to one another therefore, yes, a NJ bench warrant is good in OK. As a practical matter, if it was issued for a very minor violation they may not hold you or extraidte you because of the time and expense involved, but I would never count on it 100%.
