You cannot do that.

Well, actually you can with newer iPhone models using 5G.

If you want to update the iOS, you MUST be connected to WI-FI. (You can also update using a computer which also requires WI-FI or ethernet.)

Updating with a mobile data connection is not possible when using iOS version 13. IOS version 15 allows it with a 5G capable iPhone. IPhone 12 and 13.
