There is no option to do that on an iphone, it will stay on your device.

You can purchase touch copy or imazing to export message from your phone to pc/mac.

I use iMazing. It works very well. I archive my messages to PDFs. Note that it is not free. However, if your old messages are important to you, it might be worth it.
