Depending upon the circumstances of the probation violation charge against you and assuming you are in jail, there is the possibility that you can be extradited from the state you are in to the state where the probation violation charge is outstanding.
However, if you are not presently in jail, the chances of this happening is somewhat remote. Given the circumstances that you are in, I suggest that you retain a criminal defense attorney to assist you with the situation that you are presently in.
