using icloud storage

I bought a new phone with less storage space so I bought extra icloud storage which only some of it is being used. It says my iphone storage is too full to back up, can I have all of my data on icloud instead?

iPhone 11, iOS 14

iCloud can only help in a limited way with a shortage of storage on an iPhone. See the information in both of the following about Optimized iCloud Photos.
