Not really, if I understand your question. You’d need to wire this PLAY:5 to the router, which is the source of the music data, not the other Sonos device.
Have you called Sonos directly?
Stevedf,
I'm not sure what you mean by “rg cable". If you mean an audio cable, the answer is no. If you mean a network cable connected between the units, this is not recommended, but it may work (unreliability) if another player is wired to your router.
Meant a cat 5 cable.
I cannot plug into the router as the signal is received from a few wifi extenders which do not have a cat 5 port.
I was hoping to feed the wifi-less play 5 from its partner play 5 because I am no where near the router for a hard wire connection. Sonos wants me to upgrade the play 5

Have you done some,
So looks like it is worth a shot daisy chaining them.
For info Running on S1 v 11.9
Nothing like a real test ;)
Play 5 now works😀
