    Yes it is possible, through the library https://github.com/pocesar/react-native-sim-data

    You install it using the commands:

    npm i react-native-sim-data
react-native link react-native-sim-data

    You import it in your code:

    import RNSimData from 'react-native-sim-data'

    And you get the SIM data using the function:

    RNSimData.getSimInfo()

    The object you get has the following structure:

    {
  carrierName0: string;
  displayName0: string;
  countryCode0: string;
  mcc0: string;
  mnc0: string;
  isNetworkRoaming0: string;
  isDataRoaming0: string;
  simSlotIndex0: string;
  phoneNumber0: string;
  deviceId0: string;
  simSerialNumber0: string;
  subscriptionId0: string;
}

    To get the phone number it would be:

    RNSimData.getSimInfo().phoneNumber0;

    NOTE: The number 0 that you see in the properties refers to the number of SIMs that your device has, if your phone is Dual SIM you can get the phone number of both by changing 0 to 1.
