You can only have PI on a LEGAL forward pass.
7-5-7: Pass interference restrictions only apply beyond the neutral zone and only if the legal forward pass, untouched by B in or behind the neutral zone, crosses the neutral zone.
I would say that if PI were the reason that an eligible player was not in the area, then call PI. However, if a passer is beyond the neutral zone when the pass is thrown, there cannot be PI.
