Hello,
You can on your iPad through the Apple Watch's paired iPhone. This article gives the instructions.
Use a remote to control a Keynote presentation - Apple Support
"You must first set up iPhone to be a remote control for iPad, as described above, and Keynote must be installed on Apple Watch and its companion iPhone. To install Keynote on Apple Watch, update the companion iPhone to the latest version of Keynote. Then on Apple Watch, confirm the Keynote installation.
Important: For best results, set Apple Watch to wake and display Keynote when you raise your wrist during the presentation. On Apple Watch, go to Settings, tap General, tap Activate on Wrist Raise, and turn on Wrist Raise. Then tap Last Used App (swipe up to see it).
To close Keynote on Apple Watch, press the Digital Crown."
I hope this helps.
