It is impossible to increase the amount of RAM or internal storage in your iPad - as this is fixed during manufacture; what you have is fixed for the life of your device. You can, however, subscribe to a higher tier of iCloud storage - but this is not a substitute for internal storage.
Upgrade to iCloud+ - Apple Support
While iOS/iPadOS offers no facility to utilise external/connected storage as virtual RAM, it will automatically use available local (i.e., device) storage to supplement available RAM when needed. You should note that this is fully automatic- and cannot be configured.
