The person has to be in valid status at the time when USCIS adjudicates the adjustment of status. I cannot say for sure, but I think the person is better off applying for an immigrant visa overseas.

If someone is here on an unexpired B-2 status and their EB priority date is current and they are otherwise eligible for adjustment, they can certainly file for adjustment.
