Can I transfer google voice group chats to iMessage?

So i just got an iPhone, and previously used google voice (gv) on my androids. I was wondering if I could transfer my gv group chats (gc) to iMessage. When I put in my gv number, all gc texts go to me in a direct chat (dc). And every image is sent from a random name like “3xyzhajakebzhH726hshsjznebaioaeb“ or whatever. This isn’t just receiving messages from androids; even people who text from imessage
