Used Quick Start to clone old iPhone to new model. But new model is faulty so I am getting it replaced. If I erase/re-set faulty new phone, will I be able to use Quick Start again to clone data etc from the old phone to the (replacement) new phone?

If you still have the old phone, yes you can use it to set up the new phone via Quick Start. Bear in mind that any content or data that you created on the new phone will be lost because you can’t use two different phones to set up another one.

Erasing the new faulty phone will have no bearing on what you want to do.
