The answer to this one is no, you cannot.
With SfB there used to be BToE (Better Together over Ethernet) to do the auto logon amongst other features, but this is not part of Teams.
However, if you logon to, for instance, your desktop phone; you can select it to auto lock when you are not close to it, and auto-unlock when you are. This is done using BToBT (Better Together over Bluetooth). Simply pair your teams client with the desktop one, or with your mobile phone, and select auto lock. Works like a charm 🙂

Nothing specific that needs to be setup. You log on to the Teams Client with Your M365-account and you can log in to the Teams app on a mobile phone with the same account then you are logged in on both devices. If you start/join a Teams meeting on your Teams client you can also e.g. transfer the meeting to your mobile and continue there.
