become the Azure AD cloud user to the internal AD
Hello, we have cloud only users in Azure AD. Now we like to create an internal AD. Is it possible to become the Azure AD cloud user to the internal AD? The other way around I can use AD Connect. ...

Yes. You scan setup the local AD and as long as the account login names match you can sync them using adconnect after the fact.

Thanks for all your answer. How I can merge the users (onpremise and azure AD)?
