Disclaimer- I never use cloud saves. But I have changed my gaming PC many times, and you should have no issues continuing a save from your previous machine.

Just copy that existing save to the Paradox HOI4 save games directory under "My Documents" on the new machine. Also, make sure you sign-in with the same Steam account on both machines, and it should work with no issues.
