There is no getting into the cloud to reteive messages. There is no access ot iCloud Messages on the icloud.com website.
If you turned on iCloud Messages on a device you no longer have, you need to turn on the same option on a replacement Apple device logged in to the same iCloud Account so it can access those messages.
click here ➜ Set up iCloud for Messages on all your devices - Apple Support
If you did something else to get these messages to iCloud, then plase clarify.
