Passive voice must be present with a be form (being/been/am/is/was/are/were etc). Perfect continuous already has a be form 'been' and hence cannot be converted to passive form

The present perfect continuous tense does have a passive form. For example, "The project has been being worked on for weeks." This passive form emphasizes the continuity of an action that started in the past and is still ongoing, often with implied or explicit consequences in the present.
