Can I put my sim card in another iPhone?

My iphone6 is having issues. Can I switch my SIM card (at&t) to another iphone6 and not lose access to anything until I buy a new phone?

You can move your sim and use the phone as you use your phone. But the sim does not contain the data stored on your phone, so none of your contacts, apps, accounts etc., will transfer because you put the sim in. Make sure you backup your current phone. And restore the new phone from the backup from your old phone.
