If the DVD Player is connected to your TV and Beam2 too, just select the DVD input as source and as Beam2 should be the standard audio output device, you will hear DVDs audio on Beam2. 


You cannot play from the DVD-player directly. You always have to connect via the TV.

Of course not „out of the box“. If you don’t need hdmi arc connection, you would be able to make it work with a cheap toslink switch. 
I did so long time ago with my Playbar. 
TV and CD player each were connected via optical cable to toslinks inputs. The output of the switch was connected to the Playbar. 
So I was able to listen to DVD via Playbars digital input without need of switching on the tv. 
But today… for hdmi arc connections that isn’t such easy to manage.
