If you have your own domain, you should first add it to the Azure Portal. Then you should adjust the local AD, namely the UPN of the users. If you do not have your own domain, you can easily install and set up Azure AD Connect. The accounts in Azure AD are then extended with the standard DNS suffix. For example firstname.lastname@company.onmicrosoft.com The last part from the UPN "onmicrosoft.com" are the standard DNS Suffix from Microsoft. Regards Tom Wechsler

TomWechsler thank for answer.

How I can add my domain if his internal name (.local) and I can't verify them? I'll add our public domain name, but we are not using him.

You cannot add/verify the local domain in the Azure Portal. You can set up Azure AD Connect without a verified domain. As mentioned, the accounts are then extended with the default DNS suffix from Microsoft.
