    I suppose that you have already Hybrid Identity with AD Connect.

    I advise to add a Hybrid Exchange 2016 to your on-premises, you can install this server in your organization without any risk to your existing Exchange 2010 servers and you can use it to migrate your Exchange 2010 mailboxes to Exchange Online.

    After migrating all your mailboxes, you need to keep your Hybrid Exchange Server on-premises till this feature is supported in AD Connect.

    The Hybrid Exchange 2016 uses a free license, if you don't hold any mailboxes on it.
