just want to ask it here,

the al new iPad Pro 2021 is coming with the m1 chip and all kind of people are talking about iOS apps coming to Mac OS and Mac apps coming to iPad my big question is if Xcode is coming to iPad because the m1 chip can run it easily so...

is it something I can hope of or totally not?

M1 Macs have a feature to run iOS apps, but M1 iPads do not have features to run macOS apps.
Generally M1 is just a name for marketing and is very similar to A-something.

because the m1 chip can run it easily

Your because is based on a false assumption. Running macOS apps is not so easy whether M1 is used or not.

You can find many threads discussing Xcode on iPad, for example Xcode for iPad Pro.

I do expect Xcode on iPad, but do not know Apple might be planning it or not.
