If there a way I can inner join a MS Sql table to a MySql Table in one query using MySql?

Question

I have 2 servers one servers runs Microsoft SQL Server and the other one is using MySql.

I need to be able to inner join a table from MS SQL name it "A" to a table "B" located on a different server that uses MySql

So I want to be able to do something like this

SELECT A.*, B.* FROM A INNER JOIN B ON A.id=B.id LIMIT 100

How can I do this? note that both servers are on the same network.
