Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
Welcome to MrExcel forums.

Try this - I've modified your macro to create a unique query name and use that name in the ActiveWorkbook.Queries.Add, the Source string for the ActiveSheet.ListObjects.Add and the CommandText and DisplayName strings. With no queries in the workbook, when you run the macro for the first time the first query is named "Page001" (the same as your code). On subsequent runs the query is named "Page001_2", "Page001_3", etc.

VBA Code:
Sub Makro2()
'
' Makro2 Makro
'
    Dim queryName As String
    
    queryName = "Page001"
    If ActiveWorkbook.Queries.Count > 0 Then
        queryName = queryName & "_" & ActiveWorkbook.Queries.Count + 1
    End If
    
    ActiveWorkbook.Queries.Add Name:=queryName, Formula:= _
        "let" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    Zródlo = Pdf.Tables(File.Contents(""C:\Users\osp20201145\Desktop\Faktury PGE makro\Faktury PGE\EDI123456 YYY Energia Ciepla 9031044197_JRM 123.PDF""), [Implementation=""1.3""])," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    Page1 = Zródlo{[Id=""Page001""]}[Data]," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    #""Naglówki o podwyzszonym poziomie"" = Table.PromoteHeaders(Page1, [PromoteAllScalars=true])," & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    #""Zmieniono typ"" = Table." & _
        "TransformColumnTypes(#""Naglówki o podwyzszonym poziomie"",{{""[image]"", type text}, {""Column2"", type text}, {""Column3"", type text}, {""Column4"", type text}, {""Column5"", type text}, {""Column6"", type text}, {""Column7"", type text}, {""Column8"", type text}, {""Column9"", type text}, {""Column10"", type text}, {""Warszawa, 07.10.2022"", type date}, {""Colum" & _
        "n12"", type text}})" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "in" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "    #""Zmieniono typ"""
    
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
    
    With ActiveSheet.ListObjects.Add(SourceType:=0, Source:= _
        "OLEDB;Provider=Microsoft.Mashup.OleDb.1;Data Source=$Workbook$;Location=" & queryName & ";Extended Properties=""""" _
        , Destination:=Range("$A$1")).QueryTable
        .CommandType = xlCmdSql
        .CommandText = Array("SELECT * FROM [" & queryName & "]")
        .RowNumbers = False
        .FillAdjacentFormulas = False
        .PreserveFormatting = True
        .RefreshOnFileOpen = False
        .BackgroundQuery = True
        .RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
        .SavePassword = False
        .SaveData = True
        .AdjustColumnWidth = True
        .RefreshPeriod = 0
        .PreserveColumnInfo = True
        .ListObject.DisplayName = queryName
        .Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
    End With
    
End Sub
