What did you use the phone number for, was it to call or to sign in?
If you used the phone number to sign in to Teams with multi factor authentication, so that you got a text message to your phone when you signed in, then it is possible to use the same number for multiple accounts.

However, I can not now log in to my old account to remove the number.
When I contacted the accounts team they said once it is removed from the old account it will not be able to be added to a new one?
