I haven’t backed up an older iPad in over two years… (I’ve been using a new one, although they’re linked). My new one crashed, can I still back up the old one with all the new information?
iPad (3rd generation)
You can restore a backup for one iPad to another - however, the target iPad must have the same or more recent version of iOS/iPadOS as was used to create the backup.
As such, unless you have updated your older iPad to the same or more recent version as your current iPad, you’ll not be able to restore the backup for your newer iPad to the old iPad.

you can restore the old one with a backup of the new one, if they run the same ios version
otherwise best you can do is when using the same appleID you get all the data synced from icloud
