Sorry, not after it is locked. However, if you had iCloud Photos turned on, your photos are on iCloud.com and they will automatically sync back with the phone after you unlock it. Or if you have a backup you can use that. See: Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support and Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support


There is an Apple article that explains what to do if you have forgotten an iPhone or iPad passcode. Click on the following link: If you see an iPhone or iPad unavailable message or Security Lockout screen - Apple Support


If that option is not available, you will need to use a computer. See: If you forgot your iPhone passcode - Apple Support
