- No, since Microsoft 365 and/or Office 365 (.onmicrosoft.com) is separated from Personal and/or Home Accounts like Outlook.com and GMAIL.COM. Even if you add your Outlook.com and GMail.com accounts to Outlook Desktop Applications, M365/O365 has no capability through search to your personal email.

Will the admin can access my device?
The question is too broad for me. AFAIK Admin can retrieve information of the device or do a remote wipe if your device is managed by the organization.
Will he able to see my emails and login details? Emails, yes by doing Content Search or eDiscovery. Also login details such as when and where you login. Password, no, admin can reset it or force you to reset it.
