The begging of the string is zero width character. So you could use
negative lookahead (?!^).
Then the regular expression looks like:
/(?!^)\$hello\$/g
var str = '$hello$ should not be selected but',
str1 = 'not hello but all of the $hello$ and $hello$ ... $hello$
each one ';
str.match(/(?!^)\$hello\$/g); //null
str1.match(/(?!^)\$hello\$/g); //["$hello$", "$hello$", "$hello$"]
