Alli, handed a rare start by Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho, flicked the ball up after meeting a right-wing cross by Matt Doherty, then leapt with his back to goal to direct an acrobatic effort into the bottom corner in the 11th minute of the second-leg match in the round of 32.
The midfielder crossed for Carlos Vinicius to head in the second goal in the 50th, then played in substitute Gareth Bale to curl a powerful 73rd-minute shot into the top corner.
Vinicius added a fourth for Tottenham, who completed an 8-1 victory on aggregate.
The remaining second leg matches in the last-32 are being staged on Thursday.
The Tottenham-Wolfsberg game was played on Wednesday to avoid a clash with fellow north London club Arsenal, who are also at home in the second leg against Benfica - although that game is being played in Athens because of coronavirus restrictions.
