Can I update to the latest iOS without a computer?

[TH55]

I want to jailbreak my phone but just moved and haven’t set up my desktop yet. Can I update to the latest iOS from my phone as long as I am plugged in and connected to WiFi?

Yes, assuming you mean before you jailbreak it. Settings > General > Software Update.

The latest iOS (13.5.1) does not support the unc0ver jailbreak, but if you have an iPhone X/8 or older then you should be good.

Do I need a PC or can I do it all from my phone?

Like I said before, you can only JB with Checkra1n using a Mac. You can not do it all from your phone.

Or Windows, Linux or even a Raspberry Pi using one of the derivatives such as Ra1nstorm / RainUsb.

@TH55 all these require the use of an external computer.

I didn’t realize that they came up with a way to JB for Windows before reading Tigger’s link that he provided. I think Tigger has already answered your question in the post above.
