This sounds abit tricky to do on the fly but i think you could use gnu/parted to do this. but your /home partition and /var partition need to be next to each other so that you can subtract from one and add to the other. if this is not the case, you can't do this on the fly. you would have to subtract from home as before, then create a new partition and do LVM with the original /var partition.
