I need help with migration
Hello
I need to migrate our account to a wider business due to a merger.
In general, I need to change the domain name while keeping my email history without losing any data.
On top, I need to ensure after that after the change the extensions of our emails from (i.e @ abc.com to @ abd.com) to have access to the emails which are still being sent to @ abc.com, for example being automatically forwarded to the new email addresses.

Add the new domain in Microsoft 365 Admin Center, make it primary,
and keep the old domain as a secondary alias. This way, all history stays intact
and old emails continue to arrive without issues. - Dan_SnapeIron Contributor
All that you mention is possible. Becasue you haven't mentioned about either the source or target environments (or even if you in fact need to do a migration or just need to change your primary email address), I'd guess you're not that technical, so I'd recommend looking around for a 3rd party that can help you do the work. Perhaps the buinsess you are merging with has the technical knowledge to help you do the work.
