If you backed up your 6S to iCloud, you can retore from that. There is no way to get data from a dead phone directly.

If you were synchronizing things to iCloud, then you can get them back on the new iPhone by synchronizing the same things to iCloud under the same Apple ID.


E.g., if you were using iCloud Photos on the dead iPhone 6s, any photos that it had a chance to store on Apple's servers will be there, and will synchronize to the iPhone 12 mini if you hook it up to iCloud Photos.
