In fact I really don't think there is a requirement for side air bags yet. Not all cars have them.

And when you don't have them, you have to do the pole side impact test. At least that was the rule a few years ago.
Don't get me wrong, almost anything is possible with enough money and enough structure (read that as mass).
It's just very, very, very, very, hard.
But the Government at least recognizes the importance of roof structure in meeting roof strength and side impact and also realizes people want convertibles so excludes them from the rules.
