Probably - but he hasn't done that yet. Trump hasn't just ignored an order.

Yeah, he kinda did. There was some debate about "oh, well the plane is outside US airspace", and other nonsense.

I don't know the legal precedent (if any), but it seems to me that persons carrying out the Felon's orders is the same as the Felon doing them.

Had Hitler survived to see the Nuremburg Trials, do you really think anyone would have taken him seriously if he said "I didn't actually kill anyone personally"? I don't think so. His orders, his responsibility.
