    If you're looking for photo stream photos on icloud.com you won't see them there.  They can only be viewed on an iOS device or computer that is signed into your account with photo stream enabled.

    If you backed up your phone to iCloud over wifi, the backup would contain your camera roll photos.  However, you would have to restore the entire backup to your device to recover the photos.

     

    As mentioned, photo stream photos can be viewed from a computer or iOS device that is signed into your account with photo stream enabled.  Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days.
