If an iPad is powered by a mobile processor, that boasts desktop performance, than does it thermal throttle? Is it even possible to overheat one to the point of thermal throttling?
Just wanted to know.

Yes. iOS devices will first try to reduce power consumption by scaling down screen brightness, then try to throttle peocessors.
Thermal throttling on iPad is much rarer than iPhone. A bigger screen and battery means much more power and thermal budget. In fact most iPad models that has the same processor as iPhone models at the time will have around 10% overclock to begin with.

Yes, all APU’s, CPU’s or SoC chips create heat as they process what is demanded of it.
All of these designs use thermal sensors to monitor the temp so it does not exceed the working thermal window. At which point they will throttle the processing to lower the running temp or, in some cases they will just shutdown completely until the temp returns to a runnable state.
The scale of the micro-architecture of the chip has a bearing on how hot the chip gets. The smaller will require less power and in turn less heat is created.
