Hi Lexi,
Based on your description, I understand that you want SFB online user could use SFB on premise service.
For this situation, you could configure SFB hybrid, hybrid connectivity between Skype for Business Server and Skype for Business Online means users of a domain, such as contoso.com, are split between using Skype for Business Server on premises and Skype for Business Online. Some of the domain users are homed on premises, and some users are homed online.
The following blog describes how to do hybrid, please refer to
https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/canitpro/2015/12/23/step-by-step-skype-for-business-2015-hybrid-configuration/Moreover, after the hybrid, you could migrate users in SFB online to SFB on premise, then SFB online accounts could use SFB server.

You would need to set up hybrid between on prem SFB server and SFB online
in that way:-
1. There would be a trust created(THe on prem user wil be able to see presence/chat with online user and viceversa)
2. You can move SFB on prem users to SFB online(ON boarding and off boarding)
3. The on prem SFB user wil use existing PBX and cloud users will use Microsoft office 365 cloud PBX
Alice has already shared an article to configure the hybrid set up

Hi Lexi,
You don't have to add abc.com in O365 admin center, you need to set up hybrid environment according to the link above.

Hi Lexi,
Yes, after you configure the hybrid for your environment, ABC.com users can access both Pc and mobile accounts and also si.com users cab access sfb on pc and mobile

Hello
1. I have sfb frnt end, edge and reverse proxy working fine for pc users from AD, I have an office 365 account with domain si.com now i want all users of this domain of office 365 to use my sfb, how do i make all si.com users to use the sfb setup of abc.com?
Answer to ist question:-
abc.com is a separate/individual SFB sip domain whose services are registered on ON-prem set up. The SI.com is a separate/individual SFB sip domain which is a hosted SFB platform i.e. O365.
THe si.com wil have SFB online and can make use of Lync presence/IM/Audio video calls/Meeting sharing etc.
THe only way you can make si.com sip domain talk with abc.dom domain is by setting up hybrid set up between the two domains
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
2. ANswer to second question
Right because SI.COM SIP domains DNS records are pointing to O365 and abc.com sip domains DNS records are pointing towards ON prem set up
Do not change the dns records for abc.com as it wil break your existing set up
When you configure the hybrid set up between abc.com and si.com sip domains, the si.com sip domain wil be added as an additional sip domains in your on-prem sfb server and all the users associated with si.com has to be present in abc.com AD as disabled accounts (If different AD forest) and if same forest then the users of si.com wil already be present in your abc.com AD as a child domain or forest

Hi Lexi,
Yes, as Akabe said, please don't change the DNS records for abc.com, just follow the hybrid configuration, then you can achieve your goal.
If you have any other issue during the hybrid process, welcome to open a post in our forum.

Lexi,
there are alot of pre-checks to be done before setting up hybrid set up
- https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj205403.aspx
First plan it and then execute it
Also what is the current set up of your AD forest
Is si.com a different forest or added as a sub domain inside abc.com

Also what is the current set up of your AD forest
Is si.com a different forest or added as a sub domain inside abc.com
Else, if you just want
ABC users to IM/Check presence of si.com, then simply add si.com as a trusted sip domain (I.e. SEt up federation) in existing abc SFB server

Hello Well actually the set up is like this
I have this ABC.com which has DC, SFB front end ,Edge server and Reverse Proxy, it has external user working perfecting fine on laptops.the users are signing in as user1@abc.com....everything is working fine.
Now my company ha got another domain name called si.com and this has got no skype for business setup r anything...it has office 365 Admin centre and few users with emails user2@si.com
These both are not linked to each other by dns r anything, I tried to add ABC.com domain in si.com office 365 admin centre but it was asking me to replace dns records like sip, autodiscover,etc I didnot do that as I didnot wanted to mess up with current set up.
Now since the suggestion was to set up hybrid without adding domain I started to do that...hence above errors...si.com is not added as sub domain or nything in ABC.com...ABC.com and si.com are two different domains...where si.com has just got office 365 admin centre thats all.
Please ask me if u want any other info

Well in your case it would not be easy to set up hybrid since abc.com and si.com are two different AD domains
I assume si.com was directly directly added in office 365 as accepted domain and the users associated with it were provisioned on cloud
In hybrid you would have to create disabled users (si.com) under ABC.com AD and then set up hybrid for SFB
Since abc.com has its own SFB on prem and si.com has its own SFB Online, so you can set up federation between abc.com and si.com (This will help both the domains to check presence info/IM/Audio/video chat

The best method to follow in your case is to set up federation between SFB on prem and SFB online
Hybrid is a bit lengthy procedure and it will get complicated. It requires on prem AD user to first sync with O365 using Dirsync/AAdconnect tool
So follow bellow article to set up federation between SFB on prem and online. This way your abc.com users can atleast see SI.com users presence/do IM chat/Audio/video chat and so on

it is the edge server that helps to set up federation between on prem and 0365
You would need to create the hosting provider and allow discovery based on external DNS (That is already published)
The above article is meant to establish the federation. Just follow the instructions and it should work
@O365 end, you wont have to do much as it would be an open federation by default
