is it possible to add an old iTunes back up to an established/set up device?

There is only one computer backup for an iOS device; that backup is updated with changes with each new backup, but previous backups can’t be restored. On Windows, and on a Mac with Mojave and earlier, open iTunes, go to iTunes Preferences, then Devices to see your backups.
On Mac Catalina and later, connect the phone to your Mac, open Finder, and you should see your phone in the Finder sidebar. Make sure all boxes are checked in Finder preferences/Sidebar. Click on the iOS device in the sidebar, then Manage Backups
Then, about multiple backups:
iCloud: When you back up to iCloud it saves the 2 most recent backups.
