-You can not do it directly.

-Create a Xamarin PCL project, it will create a shared project and native projects to iOS and Android

-You can add you Xamarin native project, necessary files to it

-Create a page renderer in Xamarin Forms Shared project

-Use it to load required page from native project

-Page renderer will act as a native page.You can call your native functions, UI from that point onwards.

Xamarin forms is a kind of project, not a form you can add to a project that is not xamarin forms

You can just add a new project of type Xamarin.Forms in your solution and you'll then have to port your code or share as much as possible through a PCL.
