You cannot reset your notes password to work with notes that are locked with a forgotten password. You can reset the password to work with new notes moving forward. The information below is copied from here.

Important: If you forget your custom password, and you can’t use Face ID or Touch ID to access your locked notes, Apple can’t help you regain access to those notes.

You can reset your custom password, but this doesn’t give you access to previously locked notes. The new custom password applies to all notes you lock from now on. Go to Settings > Notes > Password > Reset Password.
