I have only found git lfs ls-files but this command give only the list from a specific ref.
There is a way to have the whole list of LFS object from a Git repository?

The "git lfs ls-files" command can't list all LFS objects for the repository the way you want. The command need to list the LFS objects for a specific reference. It's easy to understand why it can't do that if you remember that each reference represent a snapshot of the repository history. The same behaviour happens with the "git ls-files" command, you can't list all files for all repository revisions (commits) at the same time.

If you have access to the git LFS server, you can look in the lfs/objects folder. Is should contain a folder structure that works like a search tree for the stored objects. At some level (maybe third?) are the objects themselves.
A small example with a tiny project I just converted to git (and git lfs) to test this looks like this:
$ ls lfs/objects/*/*
lfs/objects/9f/ef:

In my case this is inside the .git folder. I haven't pushed it to a git LFS server, but I presume the structure is the same on there. This should (as far as I can tell) give you all the hashes (as the file names) of all the files stored in git LFS.
Note: I'm basing this on experimenting with git LFS and noting what happens. Not from any deeper understanding on how the storage system behind git LFS works.
You can do this in Git LFS v2.4.0 and later using the
