While it is possible to use an iPhone with a Mac computer as a webcam, iPadOS does not [yet] support this capability. FaceTime is constrained to using either the front or rear camera of the host device.
As such, your only practical option is to use your iPhone to host a FaceTime call or video streaming App - and whist using the iPhone rear camera, use a suitable mount (such as a tripod) to support the iPhone.
Whilst the front camera of your iPad Pro has a high (12MP) pixel count, the ultra-wide camera lens reduces the effective resolution.
The ultra wide front camera features Centre Stage, allowing the iPad to mimic pan and zoom in software; however, image quality of the digitally cropped picture will suffer. Disabling the Centre Stage feature simply provides an ultra-wide camera field - but will not improve the effective resolution of the camera.
