You cannot consume environment variables from desktop flows. Instead you can create input parameters in your desktop flow then while invoke your desktop flows from cloud flow you can pass the environment variables values as input to your PAD flows.

Please refer the below link - https://www.yourteaminindia.com/tech-insights/input/output-parameters-and-environment-variables-in-cloud-flows

You can keep your variable in excel also.

Or if you want to keep them as environment variable then create environment variable for SharePoint URL and pass to desktop flow as input parameter. This is also fine approach.

Its depend on your requirement of flow to be run if you run your flow manually or attended you can use input dialouge box action for provide your sharepoint url on it.
