Combining multiple network links into a single usable link is something the industry is very slowly moving towards.
Multipath TCP is already a thing and is used extensively by iPhones at least for Apple framework services.
If you have multiple network connections, you want to use a multi-path VPN to bond them together to allow you to aggregate bandwidth or reduce total latency or reduce packet loss.
As somebody else mentioned speedify is a commercial multi-path VPN service you can use today on any device.
You could also build your own if you're so inclined, but wire guard does not have multi-path built in you have to bod something together. There is a patch for open VPN for multiPath, but it is not in the upstream
