It can only be viewed in icloud if you sync them read here Keep all your messages in iCloud - Apple Support

it can't be viewed in icloud if you backed up to icloud read here What does iCloud back up? - Apple Support

If you sync them to icloud as outlined in my first link, message is not part of the icloud backup.

If you don't sync them to icloud, then it is included in the backup, which can't be viewed by going to icloud.com
