Noise cancelling could, in theory, be done by zoom, but it takes a lot of coordination between speakers and usually a couple of microphones to figure out the distance of the sound and pin point what to cancel out (both in terms of the headphones and the microphone side of noise canceling). This is why Apple was able to get noise canceling microphones on calls faster than android - they only had to deal with one physical phone. Either way - you can purchase noise canceling microphones - though researching it is a pain since "noise canceling" in headphone refers to the playback side of things, and OP would want the microphone side. They do exist though.
