You can use the iPhone 7 power adapter and cable with an iPhone 13. It won't harm the battery and Apple encourages it.

We encourage you to re‑use your current USB‑A to Lightning cables, power adapters, and headphones, which are compatible with these iPhone models. But if you need any new Apple power adapters or headphones, they are available for purchase.
