Recover files from phone via computer and wireless connection?

I want to restore phone files through a computer , but the usb-wire was a little damaged and, in my opinion, cannot be repaired ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. So, is it possible to recover files from a phone via a computer without a wired connection? . Well, for example, through a wireless connection (via wifi, so to speak). I have huawei bodies if anyone is interested.

most probably not. and what happened? why are the files lost? were they on the internal memory of the phone or on the card?

Even if you have a working cable, it's far from certain that it will work out.
The approximate border is Android 6. Starting from it, phones are connected to the computer "not like a flash drive", i.e. you won't have a drive letter and you won't be able to scan it.
If your phone still connects with a drive letter, then stop using it (turn it off), find a normal cable, connect it to a Windows computer, download the free R.saver (data recovery program) to your computer https://rlab.ru/tools /rsaver.html and do a full scan.
It is important to keep the phone turned off so that your files are not overwritten with new data.
If the files were on a memory card, then the information recovery process is similar, just unmount it, remove it, connect it directly to a computer, and scan it.
If the phone is connected without a drive letter, then everything becomes more complicated. You are unlikely to do anything on your own. Turn off your phone and look for a specialist who has, for example, Cellebrite UFED or Mobile Forensic.

Of course, this is not available by default, since the contents of data should not be easily accessible to applications on the phone, except for what is allowed by the rights settings and only their data to their applications.
An exception is if the phone is rooted, you can dump the desired partition onto a memory card (then you can remove it and connect it on the computer) or by connecting adb over the network (the option should be in the developer settings, if not, if root is available, the functionality is added by the application), actually no matter what application to do it, for example, you can connect from the usual ssh and the termux terminal from the phone and upload the dd dump to your server.
Here it is important that as little as possible is written to the data section, since it is there that the user and application files that are changed are stored.
Usually there is an ext4 file system, so there are a lot of tools and guides. It is clear that the chances are not 100%.
p.s. did you include backup of files to google cloud? when the phone is set up for the first time, these options are included without hesitation by the vast majority of users. Those. there is a chance to recover data (if the applications themselves do not prohibit it, for example, google authentiticator does not backup the 'password' database to the network)
