iCloud Storage has nothing to do with the physical fixed memory on your iPad. iCloud Storage is a syncing service, not an archive.

If you are out of space on your iPad, your choices are as follows:

The memory on your iPad is fixed and cannot be increased. Delete things you don't need or use, such as photos, videos, apps, files, texts, email - Note: If you sync text messages or photos with iCloud, when you delete them from your iPad, they will be deleted from the cloud in real time - OR
Buy a newer iPad with more physical memory
