It's currently not possible to use the soy:template-renderer tag inside Web Content Freemarker Templates.

Steps to reproduce:

Create a simple Web Content Structure and associate a Web Content Template using the following code

<#assign liferay_soy = taglibLiferayHash["/META-INF/resources/soy.tld"] /> 
<#assign context = {"spritemap": "${themeDisplay.getPathThemeImages()}/lexicon/icons.svg", "symbol": "sheets"} /> 

<@liferay_soy["template-renderer"] 
    context=context 
    templateNamespace="ClayIcon.render" 
/>

Expected: 

Template renders and shows an icon

Current result:

Exception is thrown. See attached image
