  What exactly do you mean by "sync"?

  If you mount both source and destination NTFS pertitions on your Ubuntu machine, I doubt that rsync will care about the underlying filesystems. Have you tried it and failed?

You can also do the sync in Ubuntu. You do not need specific options. Just use the -a (or --archive) option like you would do for a mirror copy from linux file systems to linux file systems.

rsync is originally unix utility to sync source and destination. Now rsync is even ported to windows as well. You may need cygwin or mingw on windows machine for the same.
Only condition is that both operating system should see each other's filesystem and ssh should be enabled both side.
