Hi Christian,
Thanks for your reply and clear answer! Sorry for the late reaction. Meanwhile, I've been working on a solution that worked for this organization within this scenario.
As the users within the described tenant were 'external users', I've added one Business Premium license to the newly created GA within this tenant. And as you described, the 'free tenant' settings are upgraded and the tenant will receive all paid features, groups etc. From this account, I was able to configure AAD, Exchange Online, and Intune without interrupting the Microsoft Teams free accounts. Despite this there will be a moment when the external accounts have to be removed from AAD and on-premises accounts will be synced from AAD and users can log in with their "new" identity in AAD.
Thanks again!
