Can I use Roku remote thats for my bedroom Roku to operate my living room Roku

It depends on the models of the Roku devices and the type of remote.  If it's a "simple" remote with no microphone button or pairing button, it will work with any Roku player that's not a stick.  Sticks plug directly into a TV without the need for an HDMI cable and only work with "voice" remotes.  Voice remotes work with any Roku player or Roku TV manufactured within the last several years and most Roku devices ever manufactured, but must be paired to the Roku device and can only be paired to one device at at time.  Roku TV remotes (that aren't voice remotes) only work with Roku TVs and are generally manufacturer specific, although may work with more than one manufacturer's TVs.

Post the model numbers of your Roku devices as displayed under Settings->System->About and what kind of remote you have if you need more help.

How to pair with another roku

With fresh batteries in the RC-AL7 remote, unplug the power from the new Roku for a bit, wait a few seconds plug back in after it stops bouncing, press and hold the pairing button in the battery compartment of the remote for 5 seconds, release just let it communicate with Roku. Don't touch another key.

I have a Roku Express but my 4k streaming Roku device isn't pairing to it

What's  the model number of the express? If it's a 3700 express it can't be paired with any Roku wifi remote,  only Roku IR remotes.
