Yes.  Assuming that you are on a Mac, get an app called “ACTPrinter.”  It 
installs on the Mac and on the iPhone.  I forget if it’s free or just cheap - 
but I know I don’t spend much of such things.

Select all the messages you want to save/share and then select Print under the 
File menu.  Then, from the pop-up menu on the Print window, select 
“ACTPrinter.”  Your iPhone will have to be turned on and the ACTPrint app would 
need to be running on it.  The result is that you have a pdf containing all of 
the selected emails which you can share by the usual methods - email, whatever.

If you’re not on a Mac, never-mind.  Sorry.  It’s not my fault.
