Ionic v3 uses Cordova for generating native app. So the question is : Can Cordova Android target API 33 ? Cordova-android platform and Google Play's target API level 33 update

It may be possible, but it won't be supported by Ionic. According to this Ionic page Ionic 3 is only supported against Cordova 8, but you need Cordova 12 to have API 33 support. That's not to say Ionic 3 won't work with Cordova 12, but it won't be supported.
