Answer 1

Exact what i was looking for... You can use the Microsoft Graph API to interact with the data users in the Microsoft cloud(Including AAD). Link here Documentation

Answer 2

There is an implementation of System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement for .NET Core 2, published by the .Net Foundation. See the nuget reference here

This will allow you to make calls like this:

    using (var ctx = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain, "MyDomain")){
        var myDomainUsers = new List<string>();
        var userPrinciple = new UserPrincipal(ctx);
        using (var search = new PrincipalSearcher(userPrinciple)){
            foreach (var domainUser in search.FindAll()){
                if (domainUser.DisplayName != null){
                    myDomainUsers.Add(domainUser.DisplayName);
                }
            }
        }
     }
