As of this time, merging two accounts or transferring data entirely is unavailable in QuickBooks Online (QBO). You can, however, transfer data like Chart of Accounts, customer, vendor, and products and services list manually by exporting from the old account, then importing them to the new one.
Here's an article with guidance on how to do it: Move your lists to QuickBooks Online.
You may also wish to look for third-party applications that offer exporting/importing transactions between QBO companies. You can visit this link to find them: https://apps.intuit.com.
For additional reference, I'm attaching some articles which you may find helpful:

To merge two QBO Online companies, each QBO dataset will need to be converted to a Desktop version of Quickbooks first. The desktop files are merged and will need to be uploaded to a new QBO company file.
Can the merged desktop files be re-uploaded back to the QBO account? Yes, the merged desktop file can be uploaded back to the QBO account but if your account is older than than 60 days, you will need to contact Inuit to get permission to upload the merged data back to the original QBO account. If not, you will need to create a new QBO account. PM me if you need any more information.

I am running out of computer memory. So I was thinking of deleting the older versions of Quick books Desktop Versions. If I delete the older versions will I have problems with the Desktop Version I am using? I am a very small business and I chose to keep using Quick books Desktop version 2020 Pro. I am not having issues with this version, I just need more memory space, and want to know if I can successfully delete the older versions without having problems with Pro 2020?
Hi there, Fand S.
Every versions of QuickBooks Desktop operates independently from each other. Deleting an older version will not affect the current one that you're using.
Although, please take note that QuickBooks 2020 is already an unsupported version of QuickBooks. This means that it can no longer be updated and any add-on features will no longer work. Please see this article for more details: QuickBooks Desktop 2020 Service Discontinuation Policy.
Let me also share these articles in case you want to upgrade to the latest version:
