yes, you can be extradited to another state for proscution, then you will be sent back to the original state to serve out the sentence, then if by chance the death penalty was revoked you will still have to serve the full sentence due to the charges against you in the extradited state. Added: All US states and territories honor each other's requests for extradition - there are no 'safe-haven' states.
