Is it possible to add power to existing wire-free Essential door bell and would that keep the battery charged?

Yes.   You need to supply low-voltage AC power using a transformer that is spec'd at  8-24 v, 10 VA or more.

 

The transformer can either be a plug-in module, or hardwired into your house wiring.

Instructions for the AVD2001 are here:

Instructions for Gen 2 models (AVD3001, AVD4001) are here:
