Possible to use 4G connection via tablet?

I believe that any reasonable path that gets the Glowforge access to the internet should work. At the very least, the direct tablet hotspot → Glowforge will work as indicated by @dan here:

Glowforge requires a wifi connection. It will work with a wired-to-wifi converter, and with cellular internet adapters like the MiFi device and cell phone hotspots. It’s also resistant to internet outages and works with slow bandwidth (if the connection drops, it finishes what it’s doing and then pauses).
