Dear Natalia,
I'm not aware of an automated way, but you can rotate the projections in 
the basis you want, provided you have a matrix defining the basis 
transformation and the full projection matrix (squared moduli are 
commonly written in output). The latter matrix is written by projwfc.x 
in outdir, the file is named atomic_proj.xml. For each atomic state 
phi_i, you will find the projections <psi_nk|phi_i> for all n in the 
field "ATMWFC.i".
Then you can conveniently find eigenvalues and kp-weights in the same 
xml file to reconstruct the PDOS.
HTH,
Guido
