all my messages got deleted because i didn’t have enough storage so I bought some and I’m backing up my phone now, will I be able to get my old messages back? I had really important stuff on there.

A Few Thoughts:

A. Was Notes Set in iCloud?:

If your iPhone did not have Messages enabled with iCloud, then they would be gone. That's just the way it is :(
Go Here: Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support

B. Any Backup of your iPhone?:

If you backed up your iPhone, then restore them from that

C. Log into iCloud:

See if they reside in iCloud.
