You can do that with an iPhone SE 3rd generation if your carrier supports it but not with earlier models. See the following from Back up iPhone - Apple Support


Note: On models that support 5G, your carrier may give you the option to back up iPhone using your cellular network. Go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > iCloud Backup, then turn on or off Backup Over Cellular.
