If you make a new AppleID that won’t add a backup email address to your existing AppleID - About your Apple ID email addresses - Apple Support


Login to your AppleID - https://appleid.apple.com/ and you can add as many additional emails or telephone numbers as you wish as backup forms of communications.


And any @icloud.com address is already an AppleID itself, so you cannot use such an email address to make a new AppleID.
