I have done a search to the best that I can and can't find a question or answer.
As we all know, the D&D Beyond App for Character Sheets has buttons for Casting Spells and rolling Dice. I vaugely remember seeing something somewhere that a complete link to Avrae can be made. This link is so complete that when using the D&D Beyond app if the player presses the Dice roll or the Cast spell button that Avrae will recognize the result of that and will display the result.
I was unaware what Avare was, so I looked it up, and from what I am reading it is an advanced dice roller plugin for Discord.
I have never seen anything about the DD-B App linking to a Dice Roller, but I could have missed something.
I'm not sure what the DD-B site used for its Dice Rolling Engine, but I would assume they would use something similar on the App, but cannot speak to that as the App is not user friendly for actually playing in a session (compared to the website), so I have never rolled dice through the App.
Cheers!

Breathe, dragons; sing of the First World, forged out of chaos and painted with beauty. Sing of Bahamut, the Platinum, molding the shape of the mountains and rivers; Sing too of Chromatic Tiamat, painting all over the infinite canvas. Partnered, they woke in the darkness; partnered, they labored in acts of creation.
DDB (at one point in time at least) owned the Avrae app, I'm not sure if that's still the case. Also, DDB regularly makes changes to the character sheets under the hood, so there is also the question of whether or not it's being maintained. I assume you've already seen the Avrae documentation, but if not it can be found here. There is also a channel for Avrae on the D&D Discord server.
I joined a Discord Server that uses Avrae for all of its D&D encounters. Just from what I have experienced it a quite a bit more than an Advanced Dice Roller. Unless I am missing what you mean by Advanced Dice Roller. It imports the D&D Beyond character and runs the encounter. There is a command in Avrae that is !campaign that transfers the data back and forth between Avrae and D&D Beyond. But I am unsure how much data is transfered back and forth.

Is this possible and if so how do I do that?
