Will the email address format( username ) change for students after migrating to 0365

Hi

We are a school for Example staff name is Justin Holden and the current email address format for staff is:  First Initials of the first name and first two letters of the surname i.e JHO@myorg.como.sch.uk
The students email format is, Year they start followed by the first initials of first name and surname.
i.e if the student name is Johanne Bayley  email will be 17jbayley@myorg.como.sch.uk

Now our school has joined a new trust called Russell Trust and they already use O365
Their current email format for the staff is Nathan.West@russelltrust.org.uk
The trust wants to maintain a standard mail address format around the trust and now they have created sub domain for us i.e. myorg.russelltrust.org.uk
So once we migrate to O365 , the staff email address will change from JHO@myorg.como.sch.uk to Justin.Holden@myorg.russelltrust.org.uk

Now for the students, will it be possible to  maintain the same user naming convention
17jbayley@myorg.russelltrust.org.uk or will it become 17jackie.bayley@myorg.russelltrust.org.uk
 
Any help and suggestions will be great.
Thanks
