No such thing as a M365 account per se...
In the consumer environment M365 its a Microsft Account created when 
purchasing, activating and using the application and if desired its 
integrated Microsoft Services(OneDrive, OneNote, Outlook.com email, 
online MSFT account features(Acct, Your Info, Privacy, Security and other 
settings within the confines of that sole MSFT account).

In the M365 business arena the admin creates an account for the 
user(which is also a Microsoft account) with a unique username for the 
business domain(e.g. elvis@domain.com), a password and selects the 
licensed product giving the user the permission to access and use the 
licensed product/program(s).  Depending upon the subscription, the admin 
can add multiple users($x/user) up to the number included in the 
subscription(max 300 for the Basic, Standard, Premium, and Apps for 
business).
  The assigned license provides the user@domain(their unique domain 
Microsoft account) access to all admin approved features and services 
included in the license(i.e. the different users can have different 
levels of access).

With respect to 'being used for other purposes'
  Can you elaborate more on 'other purposes'??
If you meant that logging on to OneDrive in a browser also provides links 
to other services available for the Microsoft Account, then those 
services were established when the Microsoft Account was created.
