Not likely to survive NY winter although they do love cool weather. And it might also be too late to start now before they can establish themselves before the cold set in. On the other hand, you have a lot of seeds, why not just try a handful? I have the same problem with my lawn, so I broad cast some mustard seeds, they sprouted and are at first true-leaf stage.
Even for our milder winter, in my garden, I am debating if it is too late to seed now under plastic. I absolutely love the taste of arugula but have not found the perfect variety yet. I have "Astro" and another common one, growing in the garden now. Not the best.

I just ordered three varieties to try: "Wildfire", "voyager" and "Speedy". Some will be under plastic outside , some indoors in salad containers.
