iMessage is included in iCloud Backups, unless Messages is toggled on (in Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud), in which case messages are synchronised via Messages in iCloud.

When backing up iMessage or WhatsApp in iCloud are deleted messages saved Background: I use iMessage and WhatsApp for work and I have them both "backed up" on iCloud. Question: If I inadvertently delete one or more of my messages (either iMessage or WhatsApp) are they saved in the backup on my iCloud account?
