AFAIK, exporting tables with specific id attributes is not straightforward,
but you can abuse the class attribute by putting the id in it.  For example,
if you export a file with the following text (C-c C-e h h), the output may be
like what you want.

#+title: Org Tables to DataTables
#+html_doctype: html5
#+html_head: <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.7.1.min.js"></script>
#+html_head: <script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/2.1.8/js/dataTables.min.js"></script>
#+html_head: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/2.1.8/css/dataTables.dataTables.min.css" />
#+html_head: <script>$(document).ready(function () {$('table.example').DataTable();});</script>
#+html_head: <script>$(document).ready(function () {$('table.another-example').DataTable({lengthMenu: [3, {label: 'All', value: -1}]});});</script>

This is an example table.

#+attr_html: :class example cell-border hover compact :width 100%
| Name        | Position         | Office        |
|-------------+------------------+---------------|
| Tiger Nixon | System Architect | Edinburgh     |
| Ashton Cox  | Technical Author | San Francisco |

------------------------------------------------------------

This is another example table.

#+attr_html: :class another-example display
| Author            | Title                   | Shelf |
|-------------------+-------------------------+-------|
| Capote, Truman    | In cold blood           | D3B   |
| Chandler, Raymond | The high window         | D3B   |
| Dai, Mamang       | The legends of Pensam   | D3B   |
| Desai, Kiran      | The inheritance of loss | D3B   |
| Farrell, J. G.    | The hill station        | C1B   |
