Thank you, Florin and Vasil for your valuable response.

Yes, Eventually I want to migrate the PF from on-premises to EXO but as if now we are in process of migration, so now we want to keep the PF on Exchange On-prem however we want to sync their identity to office 365 so that EXO user and On-Prem user both can access the PF.

And we want to sync all PF mail-enabled and Non-enabled.

Syncing the (ME)PFs is just one of the steps required to enable ExO users to access them, follow the steps in the "hybrid" documentation here: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn249373(v=exchg.160).aspx

Or the relevant article for modern PFs.
