Is it possible to create an application for the smartwatch in which the application is already made in Visual Basic and has the BDA in SQL Server? The purpose is for the user to be able to see the data in smartwatch such as a normal dashboard .

If it will create, it is not made. If it is already done, it will not create.
It has not been said what the device is, but as far as I know neither of them runs VB6, it is dependent on full Windows and there are only a few much larger devices running full Windows.
Even though it may happen the language would not be adequate to take advantage of the features of the device. What's more, if it's done, it was thinking about the big screen and using features of a "normal" computer. It would not look good.
So this idea does not make sense.
I suggest to see what languages are available for it - if Android runs it can be Java, C # (it may even run VB.Net but do not know if ideally), and others - study it in depth, understand the differences to develop for this type of device and create the client.
It is possible, depending on how the server side was developed, to take advantage of that part. But I doubt it. I can not say, I do not know what was done, but those who made VB6 did not create server applications. Accessing the direct database is out of the question. You will need to create an application server. Some will opt for a TCP communication application, but most will do something over HTTP, which is not to say that it is the best decision.
Anyway, that's the answer.
