You can't pipe to a remote server. If you really want to do that, you
should pipe to a temporary file, then open it:

ls > temp-file
gvim --servername GVIM2 --remote-tab temp-file

If you're using Linux, you can pipe to a FIFO:

mkfifo temp-pipe
gvim --servername GVIM2 --remote-tab temp-pipe
ls > temp-pipe
