If you use joint lists, it's possible, of course not sufficiently to
meet your high requirements, but at least to some extent. Sweden used
to have three levels of lists before 1951 , when they switched over
to Sainte-Laguë.
Under STV the constituencies/districts are so small that there's not
much chance for proportionality within parties.
