Sky cancelled my broadband contract saying I was free to migrate anytime I wanted ( underground cable issue which neither Sky or Openreach wants to fix). Can I use sky mobile to connect to my router, pc`s etc.

No: while you can use your mobile as a cellular hotspot for wireless client devices it cannot supply the Sky Hub with a connection.

I forgot to add that full fibreoptic cables will not be installed in my area until 2026.
