They can form any LLC they like; however, they cannot transfer ownership of the property to it without your consent, since the consent (e.g. signatures) of ALL owners are necessary to transfer real estate. But they could set up an LLC to do other things (e.g. to provide property management or maintenance) or in hopes that you will agree to sell or transfer to it.
