Are there general discounts for cross-region TER trains in France?

No, there is no general discount on TER which would apply on multiple regions.

That said, about your Lyon-Marseille example, Illico discounts offered by Rhône-Alpes region explicitely mention that they are valid on that TER under some conditions. See e.g., Illico Annuel:

Conditions parcours interrégionaux :

  • Vers Bourgogne, Franche-Comté et Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur
  • Abonnements vendus en Rhône-Alpes et sur support papier (pas sur carte OùRA!)
  • Billets avantages (réductions autres trajets) possibles uniquement sur les trajets en Rhône-Alpes

which translates as:

Conditions for interregional routes:

  • To Burgundy, Franche-Comte and Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur
  • Only for paper-based subscriptions sold in Rhône-Alpes (not on the OùRA railcard!)
  • "Billets avantages" ([discount on trips not included in the subscription]) possible only on routes in Rhône-Alpes
