Is it possible to also have an e-sim plan on a dual-sim iPhone? That is if I have a dual-sim iPhone 14, would I still be able to purchase an e-sim plan from an e-sim provider and use it at the same time as the other two?

I have an iPhone 11 Pro-max, dual-sim cards and wanted to purchase an e-sim plan while traveling abroad. Unfortunately, that wasn't an available option. I am considering upgrading to an iPhone 14 pro (purchased outside the USA, and that also has physical dual-sim slots). My question is whether I will be able to use the e-sim capability on this new iPhone (even it it deactivates one of the two physical sims) or whether this would not be an option at all; thanks for any feedback!

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 16
