I am trying to decide if I would be better with non sonos in wall rear speakers with sonos amp or adding era300 speakers as rears.
I have tv with digital atmos, sonos arc and sonos sub. I am interested in if the legacy rears with amp can support the dolby digital atmos format.

The Sonos Amp wouldn’t handle all ‘Atmos’ content in the same manner as the Sonos Era 300s. The 300s have specifically driven speakers to react to the Atmos content, the Amp would include all that data in a single stream. You’d get the Atmos effect from the front in the Sonos Arc, but it would be mildly limited in the rear with normal speakers. But I do mean mildly. The audible difference would depend on the source.
