I am moving from iPhone 3 to iPhone 12. I have read instructions on quick start to copy old device to new device. Will this insure that new phone has same phone number?

Copying data has nothing to do with your phone number, your SIM determines that.

As long as you move your SIM from your old phone to your new, or get a new SIM from your carrier, you will have the same number.
