Others can comment as well but sure she can try entering from the US but the odds of being reported for failing the residency obligation are high leading to her PR status being revoked.
As a PR she would still be entitled to enter regardless and if lucky to not be reported she would have to stay put for a minimum of 2 years to reset the residency obligation and only then apply to renew her PR card.
Also note until the residency obligation has been reset she should not attempt to sponsor her child or husband given that could also lead to her status being revoked so she could have to face being apart from her family for some time, maybe a few years. It could also be doubtful either her husband or child could apply for a TRV in the mean time given her status.

The baby needs a TRV to enter Canada. Hard to say if one will be approved or not. Your daughter should be aware that she will not be able to sponsor her baby or husband for PR until she has returned to Canada and lived in Canada for two straight years.
That will likely mean up to 3 years of separation. Given that your daughter is a PR it will definitely raise a red flag if her child or husband and child apply for TRVs. There is be suspicion that they are trying to return to Canada although they failed their RO. Her family should see if they qualify to immigrate again.
