The indications are that the Play:1 lacks the hardware necessary for Airplay 2, and that it cannot be added by a firmware update. Therefore this appears to be a 'no'.

Basically this shouldn’t be legal. If taking the feature “On this iPhone” out of the app means that a user can no longer make use of the installation for which they’ve paid many hundreds of Pounds, Dollars etc.

Sonos, be aware I shall never buy another Sonos product if I can no longer use my speaker network.

I am not about to invest time and money upgrading something that has until now worked perfectly fine.

What's that got to do with this topic?
Also if you don't want to lose that feature, just don't take the coming update(s).
