This method is still NEW and EXPERIMENTAL. There is no guarantee that this will work for you.
Take your active SIM card and put it into your iPhone (Please wait about 10-20 minutes to make sure that Apple has your number registered to iMessage.)
Turn on Airplane Mode, but keep the Wi-Fi on
Go to your Carrier, or your Carrier's app (EXAMPLE: Google Fi, Visible), and enable the eSIM on your Android device
This will deactivate your physical SIM card
Keep your iPhone always powered on, plugged in and connected to Wi-Fi
Keeping the iPhone always on may not be necessary, I'm currently testing it and I haven't been deregistered yet!
On your Mac, make sure to accept the "new number" being added to your Apple ID
