  you’ll want to run some sort of migration compatibility to ensure azure SQLDB is a suitable target

  double checked this and it’s not supported with sql db, managed instance supports restoring the dbs to same or another instance but it depends on whether a customer managed key or system managed key is used

  You can restore Azure SQL DB to same instance with a different name. If you are planning to rename the existing db make sure to start with your secondary replica first.
