If I have whole genome genotypes of, for example, 10,000 samples as reference data. Is it possible to simulate a gwas data (100 samples) with exactly the same LD structure as my reference gwas data ?

Simple bi-allelic SNPs without structure: PLINK

Coalescent approaches: GENOME

Forward-time approaches: MetaSim and simuPop

Resampling approaches: Hapgen2

Yes. There are many tools:

simuPOP is quite popular for population simulations
