AD user locked vs Cloud replication

Hi,

Is it possible that an AD user account is locked in on-premise DC but he can still logon his O365 mailbox? Maybe due to replication in the cloud side?

So when the locked will be propagated in o365? I'm confused because this look like a security issue no?

it's almost a security issue, but your on-prem AD isnt accessible, on the o365 services are which could be a problem for some companies, but you can setup  a filter to sync that attribute as I mentioned earlier. I'm not a fan of adding or modifying default o365 attributes, but it's your choice.

So the account in O365 will never be locked or will be locked separately in O365 mechanism?
that is correct.
