Yes, but you need to follow these steps: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Do not manually delete anything off of the old iPad if its still logged in to your iCloud account. iCloud will sync changes and remove anything you delete from any other device that is signed in to the same iCloud account.
