There is a way to remove Exchange on-premises for Exchange Server 2019 (details here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/exchange-team-blog/removing-your-last-exchange-server-faq/ba-p/3455411)
There is no option to enable remote mailboxes without having Exchange tools installed. Some more details on that scenario can be found here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/Exchange/manage-hybrid-exchange-recipients-with-management-tools

Hi Dan,
Thank you for the help, we will migrate to exchange 2013, turn off the server and use Management tools to assign the attributes,
Thank you for all the help

- Dan_SnapeJul 27, 2023Bronze ContributorThe best path forward is to install an Exchange Server 2016 server, decom all the Exchange 2010 servers, then either install an Exchange 2019 server or if you don't want a server on-prem, do the schema update and AD prem from the latest Exchange 2019 CU ISO and shutdown the Exchange 2016 server as per the link in my original post
