I do not know the answer to the iCloud question, but if you are using Windows and plug your USB cable into your computer, the computer will see the iPhone as an external drive.
Launch Windows Explorer and navigate to the iPhone drive. Several folder levels down you will finally get to the list of photos. You can then just select all and hit delete. Or, manually move them to your hard drive in case you want to see if it effects the iCloud backup. You can always copy them back to the phone if it does.
