If my old phone never backed up does that mean it is impossible to transfer everything from the old phone to the new phone?

Not if you still have the old phone and it still works normally. In that case you could use Quick Start to transfer data -> Use Quick Start to transfer data to a new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


If you don’t have the old phone, or it no longer works, and you don’t have a backup then there is no way to transfer your previous phone’s data to your new one.
