Yes. If using the rear camera for Portrait mode, tap on the (1x) circle in the corner to change Zoom levels.

The front facing camera has no Zoom option in portrait mode.

Its entirely possible thew iPhone 12 does not support the 2x zoom option.


The support document provided above has this to say:

Some iPhone models have multiple options for Portrait mode, like 1x or 2x. Just tap the 1x or 2x icon to switch between the options. With iPhone XR and iPhone SE (2nd generation), the rear-facing camera must detect a person's face to take a Portrait mode photo.


Which means it may not be available in all models.
