Since your tasks are stored on Exchange Online servers, they'll also sync automatically to your Outlook Tasks.
One of Microsoft To Do’s features is an integration with Outlook Tasks. To view your To Do tasks on your Outlook Desktop client or on Outlook.com, use the same Microsoft account to sign in to both Microsoft To Do and Outlook. All tasks are stored on Exchange Online servers, so they'll be shown in both Microsoft To Do and Outlook Tasks automatically.
Microsoft To Do doesn’t yet support all the varied features of Outlook Tasks. While data you enter in additional details in Outlook Tasks will be stored safely on the servers, it won't be displayed in To Do. Specifically, Microsoft To Do doesn't currently support the start and end dates, task status, task completion percentage, multiple priority levels, task work hours, task colors, or categories that are available in Outlook Tasks.

Instead of creating a "To Do Tag" on OneNote you can create an Outlook Task (i.e. red flag icon) (to the right of the "To Do Tag" button) on the Home tab as mentioned above. This will sync that Outlook Task and show up under "Tasks" both in Outlook and the ToDo app. For me, once I have the Outlook Task in the "Tasks" section under the ToDo app, I just click and drag that task to my custom List I want that task to go under.
A link to where that Outlook Task originated within OneNote is generated and can be clicked on the ToDo app. This will take you directly to where the task is in OneNote.
Here is an article for creating this Outlook Task within OneNote:
