You can start a detached session that in turn run your command. You can latter attach to it and see what went wrong. My suggestion is that you call tmux from /etc/rc.local using su -c to make it run as another user and then give that user permission to sudo to root for running the tcpdump command. This way you avoid needing to ssh as root to the machine, and can also filter which commands the user can run in /etc/sudoers.
