Not really
People just play the bagpipes and there are plenty of festivals with celtic or medieval imagery, nobody identifies as "celtic"

They used to be it. Galicia, Asturias, and Cantabria retained their Celtic languages and some of Celtic pagan practices until the 5th–6th centuries, as noted by the Councils of Toledo. In contrast, the Basques uniquely resisted cultural assimilation, preserving their language and paganism well into the 11th–12th centuries. This highlights the region’s long-standing linguistic and religious resilience against Latinization, Orientalization and Christianization when compared to other regions.

I think if you're willing to voluntarily go through the torture of learning and playing the bagpipes you can be honorary celtic if you want to be.

my ancestors....

Because we are romaniced celts, the rest of the Western Romance world too, but they are the ones larping as romans when the romans were the ones who subjugated all of us.
