I have a LG oled48c44la TV which has a wired connection to a Sonos Beam working successfully. I want to add 2 Sonos era 100 speakers to use as satellites, but they cannot be connected by wire. Is there a way to play through the wired Beam connection and at the same time play wirelessly through the era 100s?

Yes, you can add them as surrounds or another room. Just make sure WiFi isn't turned off on the Beam.

A wired or wireless network connection will work.
A point to consider is that, unless the 100’s are used as surrounds, there will be a time delay between TV audio through the BEAM and output from the 100’s. This is a deal killer for many listeners if the 100’s are in the same room as BEAM.
You can “Group” the 100’s with the BEAM when you want simultaneous play. There is no time delay between the units while playing music.
