can an iphone be erased through wifi or bluetooth?

Can an iPhone be erased/wiped via nearby Wi-Fi or Bluetooth? If I set my iPhone in lost mode or erase?

Thus, if I set my phone as lost or stolen can someone else’s phone send the wipe command via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to my phone even if it’s on airplane mode?

No. This is because that other person would have to be signed on to your Apple ID to issue the Erase command from the internet. The process is setup to work only if the owner sends the command.
