I manage a server windows 2012 which was not updated for approximately 2 years, to estimate the impact for a global update, I would like to know how many updates and which ones will be installed next time I activate windows update, and the size of the global updates that will be downloaded.

How can do it ? (in preference, by powershell because of a core server)

Install the Windows Update PowerShell Module, then run Get-WUList, it will take a while but will show you the required updates with their size. You can then use Get-WUInstall to download and install them.
