If your Apple Watch is GPS+ Cellular, you would need to make sure the cellular provider you use for iPhone can support Apple Watch. If they do, you can add a cellular plan to your watch. If your watch is GPS only, you cannot add a cellular plan. And you cannot use a different carrier on your watch, than you do on your iPhone.
