Hello Riarririi,
Yes! As long as everything is on your iPad, you have an option.
First, get a backup of your iPad: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
Then, when you get your repaired or new iPhone, log in with the same Apple ID as on your iPad. Anything in iCloud should sync over. If you use iCloud for your info, everything in iCloud will automatically sync over once you set it up. This can take time.
To see what is in iCloud, use a computer and log in to iCloud.com using the same Apple ID on the iPad. This will show you your Contacts, Photos, Notes, etc. and all the data that will resync to the new device.
If there isn't any info in iCloud, reach back out, and we'll give you options to turn it on, or options like AirDrop.
Thanks.
