In the Gospel library app, it is easy to make cross references using the link (chain) icon. I have not figured out a way to do this online. Is there a way to make cross references in the online study tools?

No, the LDS.org study tools don't currently support creating links. However, there are new study tools being worked on that will have better feature parity with Gospel Library. I don't know when you'll be able to create links online, but you can see the new tools that are "in progress" here:

Wow...the day I've hoped for for years could finally arrive!

I've noticed a change in the study toolbar and sidebar on scriptures and manuals recently, although it usually doesn't work at all. It's nice to see there really is some work happening. I've long feared that Notes would be the casualty on the technology side. I suppose that could still happen, but this gives me hope that maybe it won't get killed after all.
