I wonder, is that the case with Peshitta too? Is there agreement between what NT authors refer to and the OT Peshitta?

No theres seems aas far as i know, no real relationship between the peshitta OT and the peshitta NT.
The peshitta NT was not necessarily or likely written by people familiar with the peshitta OT.
Also the POT is quite close to the hebrew massoretic text, in many places, rather than any LXX we have.
I do, stand to be corrected on any of this though.
