Hi there

Yes you can do it with DirectQuery via the On-Premise Data Gateway

Here are more details: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-directquery-data-sources

Also the report can auto refresh based on your Power BI Pro License. Or when you interact with the Power BI report it will update the data in the report.
