I manage our data repository. I don't have a problem with you depositing in both Zenodo and your institutional repo as long as you are not getting a 2d DOI. Get a DOI from one or the other and then add a cross-reference to the other. If the repos are following DataCite scheme, there's a field for Alternative Identifiers.
Publishing in 2 repos is not the same as publishing the same article in two journals. A better analogy is having a book in more than one library.
