This isn't possible to my knowledge. Xen and KVM don't support Hyper-V in a VM.

Hyper-V is a type 1 hypervisor. It runs on bare metal then runs the parent as if it's a privileged VM. We've been doing a lot of work recently around nested virtualization (link) on a Hyper-V host but nothing for Hyper-V on other hypervisors as of now.

Note: I work on the Hyper-V team at Microsoft.
