According to Perplexity, no president and vice president have ever been elected from the same state.
However, it would be technically possible, it's just they wouldn't be able to get all of the electoral votes from their home state. So both Paul and Massie would not be able to receive all of Kentucky's 8 electoral college votes. But they could probably still win with the other states' votes, as long as it's not a close election.
