Retriever Phoenix must be in your graveyard at the moment you're instructed to learn if you want to use the last ability to return it to the battlefield.

2021-04-16
If Retriever Phoenix somehow dies with its triggered ability on the stack, you may return it to the battlefield with that triggered ability.
