At this time, a Wifi connection is required to update iPhone OS. One work around would be using a different device and making a hotspot, though be warned, download speeds can be slow over a 4G network. I would recommend that you just update over a stable Wifi connection.

(Friendly tip) I also recommend the iPhone being plugged in during the update process, as loss of power during updates can result in corrupt files.
