Absolutely not. Coming on a B1/B2 visa with an intent to AOS is not allowed.

If she already has a b1/b2. She can definitely travel to US. A lot of folks are traveling. Just be sure to mention to the immigration officer that she is here for an essential purpose and not travel/tourism.

If the purpose of travel on b1/2 visa is anything other than travel/tourism/business, entry will he denied & visa might be revoked.

US doesn’t have any requirement for essential purpose travel only. You can just come here.
As per the leader of this country, they have turned a corner on pandemic.
