Use iCloud Drive:
Did you log out of iCloud prior to selling it (which you should have)? If not, then if you hade iCloud Drive enabled, then enable it on your iPhone with the same account, and you could delete if from your iPhone that way. Elsewise, no you cannot delete them from you iPhone, remotely.
As for Next Time...
Backup Using a Computer:
Next time you want to sell a Mac, do so by performing what is on this link, including the backup. What to do Before you Sell, Give Away, or Trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

If your old MacBook is still signed into you Apple ID, then you could trigger an erase from iCloud.com or the Find My app on your phone..
