Honestly, how long continuously, can A/C run in hot wx? Just want to know if they can keep going for hours? I'm expecting 100+ degrees for several days in the daytime.

Good answers.
But as several have suggested, routine maintenance WILL extend the life. Clean evaporator and condenser. Oil fan motor if it has the capability to be oiled. Open and CAREFULLY clean the dirt, insect nests, etc from the electrical compartment (separate cover under roof-top cover) and make sure the capacitors have not leaked oil or are deformed.
