When you create a mail from mail application and save them as draft Save draft emails in Mail on Mac - Apple Support
For Exchange and IMAP accounts, drafts are stored on the Mail server (unless you select a mailbox on your Mac in Mailbox Behaviours settings) in Mail.
They are not exactly backed up with iCloud , they only sync with iCloud , what does iCloud back up is explained in the article What does iCloud back up? - Apple Support
App data
iCloud Backup includes app data for the apps that you've downloaded on your device. This includes data for third-party social media apps, games, and messaging apps, as well as apps from Apple that don't sync with iCloud.
