You should generally avoid using two or more AppleIDs.
Be aware that switching to using an entirely different AppleID account will cause you to lose access to any paid Apps, Apple services and subscriptions - as these are forever associated with the AppleID account from which they were purchased.
An AppleID account is intended to be used for life. If you need to change the primary email address that identifies your account, or your secondary (recovery) email addresses or trusted telephone numbers, you simply need to update your AppleID account as necessary.

Few of us will have the luxury of forever keeping the same email addresses or telephone numbers - sometimes these needing to be changed for a variety of reasons. However, updating our AppleID account, maintaining access to our data and purchases, is easy and relatively straightforward - accommodating life’s many changes as they occur.
Is the iPad disabled, or Activation Locked?
Activation Lock
Here are the Apple support pages that outline the Activation Lock - and the only mechanisms by which it can be turned off:
Activation Lock for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Turn off Activation Lock – Apple Support
As you will discover, unless you are the owner of the AppleID that was last used to activate the device, or unless you can secure the cooperation of the previous owner, you’ll not be able to defeat or bypass the Activation Lock. Without documentary evidence that you are the original owner (such as sales receipt showing the serial number), Apple won’t assist - and nobody here will be able to help you.
If you have the necessary documentation, Apple have recently introduced a portal though which you may be able to request release of an Activation Lock:

Getting Back In…
You need to unlock this device from the Apple ID to which this pertains. If you are locked out, then unlock it. Read the following…

Being Locked Out...
Enter the passcode incorrectly too many times, and you'd likely be locked out for good. So, hold it right there, and refer to this link: If you Forgot your iPad Passcode - Apple Support. It would be the one you've always entered. If you do not know it, then look for it in a location you may have stored it in.
No Success?

If you cannot get the above link to work, then contact Apple Support.
