Does Samba / Azure AD Sync allow you to Sync back passwords (and/or accounts) from O365 (to Samba)? I've never looked into that.
Never tried, but should, as it is just AD. It shouldn't be able to tell that it isn't Windows.
Well - that depends, does the sync client have to run on a Windows AD server? If not, then you probably can sync a Samba solution to Azure AD.

Last I knew, it wasn't even supposed to run on an AD server

aww - I've never used it.. in that case - run it from any other Windows server, and bob's your uncle. If Samba is doing their job right, the sync client won't know the difference.
The next question is - does MS have any licensing around the use of the sync client as a gotcha?

You can run it on any Windows server, but the problem with Samba is the password hash doesn't get sync to Azure.

Yes, it is not supposed to run in an AD server because the app needs SQL Express to work.
