I?d love to see that Architecture;)
Yeah you could do it easily. Both Azure and AWS support VMware, just spin up a couple of VMs throw Windows Server and Exchange on them connect up Azure Express route if they are in your own DC and throw a couple of load balancers in front of them and away you go. It would be more Hybrid then Multi cloud, but you can certainly use AWS and run exchange on that and connect it through Azure Express route. You can use your own facilities as well for this. Also Skype for Business will still be available for on Premises use so if Teams continues to have issues you can continue to use SFB. Certainly this setup wouldn't be affordable for smaller businesses, but O365 isn't down for that long normally, generally if you have multiple connections to the internet its a non issue. But even Telstra has had multiple downtime issues over the last year or so.
