Sorry, you cannot view iCloud Messages before or after they are deleted. See the following from Use Messages in iCloud - Apple Support
You can use Messages in iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple Watch, and Mac. For your privacy, Messages in iCloud is end-to-end encrypted, which means you can't view or access Messages online via browser.
