Do I need to run my new 4-wire cable from my new range recptacle directly back to the main breaker panel or can I splice into the existing 3-wire cable via a j-box?

It needs to be 4 wire all the way.
What is the amperage you are going to need for the range?

Don is correct.
You may NOT extend an old 3-wire range circuit.
